In the morning when I wake,
The howling wind blows;
The leaves need a rake,
And only I know.
The sun raises high in the sky,
The wind slows to a breeze,
I watch as a Mediterranean fruit fly flies by,
And I crouch down on my knees.
Night is coming, getting colder,
The sun is setting,
I put the rake on my shoulder,
This time of day, I find it rather upsetting.
It's the dead of night,
I'm curled up in my bed,
I hope I don't get a fright,
Thankfully I'm happy and fed.
