Ticking Patter

pit-pat
pit-pat
rain drops on this roof
pit-pat
pit-pat
a tear rolls down my face
pit-pat
pit-pat

piter-pater
piter-pater
feet run through the house
piter-pater
piter-pater
trying to wake you up
piter-pater
piter-pater

tick-tock
tick-tock
waiting for that time
tick-tock
tick-tock
the time talks to me
tick-tock 
tick-tock

What wonderful poetry I am reading today and so diverse. I have not read a bad poem yet today. I am enjoying reading each and everyone from old poets and new poets alike. Lots of amazing contest entries also. Thank you for sharing yours with us today Kylie. Love, Carol
