O Muse of Morning Checklists, hear our cheerful chant,
As candles of the dashboard glow in orderly enchant.
We ring the little bell of health: “Awake, ye gears, arise!”
And watch the faithful signals blink like stars in tidy skies.
First, let the heartbeat answer true; no cough, no sputter, stall.
Then queues proceed in measured steps, and none are lost at all.
Let storerooms keep their copies safe, let clocks in chorus chime,
Let warnings stay as quiet owls who nap most of the time.
If one small light turns amber-hued, we do not rend our clothes;
We tighten one pragmatic screw and see how quickly it goes.
So bless this kindly daily rite, half solemn and half fun:
A hymn to systems standing strong, their little labors done.
Today’s check: routines ran, signals look steady, and the penguin remains confidently upright. If something ever looks off, we’ll say so—without oversharing.
