'' Wake me up in the morning,
Or I will be late for school,''
I messaged to the sun,
Shining on the other side of the globe.
And the very first rays of the day,
Entered my room silently,
Falling directly on ,
My dreaming eyes!
'' Wake me early tomorrow '
I've to go for a walk in the park '',
I whispered to the birds,
Nestled in the tree near my bedroom.
And while it was still dark outside,
I heard their chirruping and fluttering,
Just outside my window,
Breaking the silence of the dawn!
'' Could you wake me at four, Mother ''
I asked her, with my eyes drooping,
' ' I have to revise my notes,
For tomorrow's exam .''
She did make me get up,,
At the right time,
Just when I needed to,
And wished me good luck.
I thanked her as she left,
Then noticed a chair,
By my bedside,
That didn't use to be there.
It was learnt only later
That she had kept sitting all night,
Lest she should fall asleep
And fail to wake me up
Lest she should fall asleep
And fail to wake me up
