Tick- tock, tick-tock he goes

Day-in-day-out he works, but never tires

When slumber lulls us into a deep sleep

Only he remains unaffected, as he works the night away

His hands move with a practised ease and poised grace

Around his base they go

His intrusive but sweet chimes ring, bounding through the walls

Announcing the arrival of a new day

And waking us from a much needed slumber
