Ducks on a Pond

An old song came to me this morning

Ducks on a Pond

By The Incredible String Band

“Ducks on a pond
Very pretty swimming round
The lion and the unicorn journey very far
The answers are the question, sir
The lady soothes the lion’s fur
Meek as a lamb he follows her
Wherever angels are
Sing me something

I asked the ice it would not say
But only cracked or moved away
I thought I knew me yesterday
Whoever sings this song“

It’s the Time Zone Funk – Backward, Forward And Back Again

I come out of unconsciousness, when I hear the coffee brewing, a start of another day

I go thru my wake up routine, turn things on, visit the non-mentioned room and pour my self some coffee

I hit the dial on the radio, there is organ music playing where the classical tunes should be, what’s this ?

I look at my computer screen and something is wrong

It says it an hour earlier than my brain wants to accept

How did I end up in a different time zone when I never left my home

Coffee inhaled, mind coming out of a fog

Something about Eastern standard, daylight saving time?

Spring, fall, backwards and forward I know it will come to me

I look at the clock on the wall, it’s my time one that I can accept

The world out there is saying one thing, yet around me I’m in a different zone

Oh, I’m in a time zone funk,

With all the adjusting that needs to be done

Clocks are a quick fix

Body clocks take longer, why am I not hungry when it time to it’s time to eat

The sun’s up earlier and sets way too early for my liking

It’s a game of catch up, against the backdrop

Of winters’ approach

When night overcomes day

It’s hard not to have that
