Recite “Tired Tim” by Walter De La Mare.
Poor Tired Tim! It’s sad for him…
Poor tired Tim! It's sad for him. He lags the long bright morning through, Ever so tired of nothing to do; He moons and he mopes the livelong day, Nothing to think about, nothing to say; Up to bed with his candle to creep, Too tired to yawn, too tired to sleep: Poor tired Tim! It's sad for him.
