We all could do with more hours in the day,
To give us more much needed time for play;
Work takes so much, and that cannot be changed,
Nor can it usually be re-arranged;
Travelling as well for most people is fixed,
As with all the hours of our work it is mixed.
There’s shopping and cooking and cleaning as well,
Which affect nearly all, wherever they dwell.
Then there is sleeping, which takes up a third
Of all of our hours, and can’t be deferred.
So most of our time has an organised form,
And that in the world of today is the norm.
But it would be nice to have every day,
A few extra hours for relaxing and play.
