I heard the alarm ringing
I heard the birds chirping
It has all again begun
Yet another day in run
The dog wagging his tail
Barking, so elated and gale
Waiting for his morning walk
That is the way he can talk
The kids rushing to school
Like a frenzied fish pool
You can see the mirth and smile
After all it’s time for sunshine!!
The clock is ticking
The workers are hurrying
Looking at the time
Checking it time to time
Waiting for their ride
Some standing with pride
Some without any fervour
Without being so sure
Just running the race
Trying to keep up the pace
A mother with a crying child
Entered in the world so mild
Every eye gazing the mother
As if they could help her
But she was unperturbed
As if her eyes were shut
The old lady came forward
Trying to sing a few words
To appease the little one
Adding some humour and fun
It finally helped and worked
And the wait was disturbed
With the arrival of the bus
It got loaded in seconds so quick
And waited for the lady with the stick
And rode around the town
Till everyone got down
Reached their destination
And start their day with motivation!
