I saw a little beetle, <br />on my way home one day. <br />“Excuse me Mr Beetle, <br />would you have the time? <br />You see I’ve left my watch at home.” <br />He looked up at me. <br />“Now let me see. <br />In the morning, <br />my shadow is in the west. <br />At noon, <br />I have no shadow at all. <br />In the afternoon, <br />my shadow is in the east. <br />Now I would put the time <br />right now at three o’clock, <br />because my shadow is north east.” <br /> <br /> <br />(2 July 2007)<br /><br />David Harris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/beetle-time-fun-poem-29/
