With ScareLady and Baggy Carrot

It’s Autumn- time to turn the clocks back, for ScareLady and Baggy Carrot.
Past their bedtimes, awake they stayed —
Their eyes drooped, their mouths sagged, as they each snored in their easy chairs.
Eight o’clock, ten o’clock, midnight, two.
Finally, it was time! It was pitch black in ScareLady’s house as they stumbled room to room to change those pesky clocks.
Grandfather clock in the hall — careful, Baggy!
The kitchen clock upon the wall — don’t fall, Scare.!
The mantle clock above the fireplace…where’s that key?
Next, to his house Baggy went. The bedside clock-radio face gleamed in the dark of the night.
His voice echoing through the night, he yelled across the yard:
“Should I set the time to AM or FM?”
