Too easily, it slips on by
Just like that, it’s gone
Thinking I could get some sleep
Then suddenly, it’s dawn
It seems I’ve lost an hour
Just like that, it disappeared
One minute is was two AM
The next, it felt so weird
Sixty minutes passed me by
And all I did was blink
In my opinion, daylight savings
Does nothing more than stink!

We still have two more weeks until the time changes again. Actually, I don’t mind it at all. Just it didn’t need to change back again in October…
