Eight O'Clock Class

Three times a week this small assembly meets, With drooping eyelids and half-hidden yawn,
To hear, incredulous, how Shelley, Keats,
And Wordsworth rose to write before the dawn.

EIGHT O'CLOCK CLASS

  1. My son in college does not have a class that starts before 10:30am. Of course, I think his bedtime is 1-2am.

  2. 5 in the morning for me today - it works in all the peace and quiet. Either that or very late at night for similar reasons.
