TICK TOCK Poem
Tock, Tick Tick, tock, tick, tock Tick, tock, tick, tock, To walk. Tick, tock, tick, tock, Tick, tock, tick, tock, Fingers frantically typing, Lots of lip biting. Tick, tock, tick, tock It’s nearly time, I’ve made my dime. Tick, tock, tick, tock Tock, tick, tock, tick As the moon rises, Not realising they’re making compromises. Tock, tick, tock, tick The sun rises, Working like machines. Tock, tick, tock, tick The sun sets, The moon rises. Tock, tick, tock, tick.
