What time is it?

What time is it?

What time is it you say ?
Time to get up start the day,
Time to brush your teeth,
Have your bath and be neat,
Time for breakfast, get ready for school,
Be ready in time for the bus or the car pool,
Time for arithmetic and reading,
Time for lunch, the daily feeding,
Time for recess and play
Time to return home , end of the school day,
What time is it,did you ask?
Why it is time for your tae Kwon do class,
Time for homework and for bed
I wish I had taken the time to say instead,
It is time to breathe, time to see
Time for you and me
Time to watch the light fade in the sunset scene
Time to count the stars, flat on our backs on the trampoline
To stop my long list of instructions ,hear your tales
Of wondrous pokemons, dinosaurs and fearsome gales
Yes time for you and time for me
Time for us , just time to be
