(141) The Atrocious Alarm Clock. Poem by Risha Ahmed (12 yrs)

It makes a horribly annoying noise
That doesn’t please me at all
It goes off when you least expect it
And wakes up one and all
It comes in various colors
And a number of shapes too
But I hate it no matter how good it looks
And I think you also do
It wakes me up from my best of dreams
With that same irritating resonance
Why doesn’t anyone understand
That it is such an annoyance
If it is not making that awful sound
It is always going tick-tock
Never let this into your house
The atrocious alarm clock.
