Time To Get Up

Tick tock tick tock Out window with that clock Each and every frigging day Tells me to get out of hay Brushing teeth Breath smelling so sweet Another dam hole in sock Oh how I hate that clock Blue jean entire God I'm really tired Clean sand bugers out of eyes In rush to say goodbye's Gas light engine on again This crisis is such a sin Scrounging pockets for a buck Pulling out lint what such luck Morning greetings from the boss When all I wanted to do was stay in bed and toss Paper work piling up No coffee to fill my cup Tic tock tick tock Come on hurry up dam clock For shopping still has to be done And let me tell you it's no fun Kids husband dogs and cats Drive me nuts like a pack of rats What can one do But not to come unglued So I want to give a big thanks To my alarm clock that doesn't play pranks And gets me up and out that door So I can pay for those things I truely adore

I certainly got a chuckle out of this one Katherine. Reminds me of my younger days, befor I got into the groove, with the way the world flys. Smile. Nice rhymes! Thanks so much for supporting my contest. "CONGRATULATIONS" Agape, Moses
