Ah, to wake up to a spring in my step!
I know today will be filled with wonders.
A great night of sleep can renew that pep
I need to win friends and avoid blunders.
My choices: the long-term plan and the whim.
I’ll make substantial headway on them both -
a pair of chalices filled to the brim.
I’ll quaff them down in advance of the oath!
But this energy’s too precious to waste.
I’ll apportion it out with strict caution.
A major challenge with which we’re all faced:
to leave nothing for our final auction.
I’ll not drain these cups too slow or too fast.
Neither I nor the sun shall the other outlast!
