What do you think this poem is about?

One Hour Back!

Grey skies, rain, fog, cold and damp air;
Darkness that seem to go on forever,
Fall is here and the days are short;
By an hour we have fallen back!
That is all as far as the hour hand can go_
Only if they could move it a decade or two back!
I would smile my way back to childhood,
To the greatest days of all time.
It is O, so impossible!
No one can turn the hands of the passing seasons!

Poet's Notes about The Poem

The clock have been turned back by an hour! l gather they do it here in North America. Back home we never shift the clock. The hands of time are for mother nature to turn!
