One of those many days

I lying fast asleep,

When I suddenly take a leap,

To silence my alarm clock,

Which is croaking like a cock.

My intention is to sleep again;

And try it, but in vain,

My sleep has already deserted me,

And has flown away like a bee.

Meanwhile, mom comes & scolds me,

“Get up. Its already 7’o clock. See!”

I give a sleepy glance to the watch

And get up at ready to march.

I know I have no time to loose.

Every second is of great use.

So I do not take a bath; assuming-

“BATHING TO BE TIME CONSUMING”.

The uniform is nowhere to be found,

And the tension starts to mound.

My servant, Ramu fetches it for me,

While I tell him I won’t have tea.

Within seconds I reach the school,

& In one piece, isn’t that cool?

But only to find Mr. Bahadur at the gate,

Who sternly says, “SOORY MATE,

AS  ALWAYS, YOU  ARE    LATE”.
