Just a second, or an hour......

Now look - how did you spend that extra second

That we had one year?!

 

A timeless amount, never to be wasted

In which to do so many things

Why, yes, I remember it well

 

I spent it in......

Taking 3,497 trips around the moon

Doing 5,436 marathons

Swimming the English Channel 2,643 times - and back again

Taking Fido for 6,547 walks

Doing enough shopping for 6 months

All these in one second!

 

But now - soon (in UK) an extra hour

A whole 3,600 seconds

Time enough to do all the above

3,600 times more!

 

Ohhh, I can\'t do all that, Orchi

I will spend the hour in bed sleeping!

 

Fido says - Orchi forgot that we lost an hour in March

And we\'re having it back now in October

 

But time almost infinite in Leap Year

An extra whole DAY!

It\'s all too much. heehee.
