Springing forward this last Sunday,  A most confusing act; For reasons clear no longer, Our sleep we so impact. Bodies still adjusting, Long after clock's re-set; A change that's so alarming, 'Tis trickery we can't abet. They say that we'll get over it, Our sleep won't always lack; But by the time we're rested, Sadly, we'll be falling back.

Daylight Savings Lament
Springing forward this last Sunday,  A most confusing act; For reasons clear no longer, Our sleep we so impact. Bodies still adjusting, Long after clock's re-set; A change that's so alarming, 'Tis trickery we can't abet. They say that we'll get over it, Our sleep won't always lack; But by the time we're rested, Sadly, we'll be falling back.
as you might guess, i detest the switch both to and from "daily savings time!"  look for my solution in six months, a poem about the "falling back" part.
