Cantankerous Clock
The Clock: Wonderland Challenge Day 2
By Angie the Archivist 📚🪶Published 2 years ago • 1 min read
Stubbornly staring me down
Making me look like a clown!
I beg and I plead
Desperate to read
something different in your face.
But no… Time refuses to race
whenever classroom chaos does rule
Please! Just get me out of school!

Another day, it’s Period One…
my day has only just begun.
The Library expectantly awaits
another of our seventy minute ‘dates‘.
Your face agrees with this blissful state…
Next glance… there has to be some mistake!
Time’s run out! Flown right by!
Cantankerous Clock! You go slow, then fly!
