Let's Get To Work.

Wake up! Wake up!
Let's get to work!
Let's hold a board meeting,
summoning on every bit of energy in us,
let's call an assembly,
charging the strength in us,
to wake up and get to work!

Wake up! Wake up!
Let's get to work!
Enough of sleeping, enough of slumbering,
for a little sleeping, a little slumbering,
a little folding of hands,
and poverty crawls on to the bed
and smothers us to death.

Wake up! Wake up!
Let's get to work!
Let's learn from the ant, gather wisdom from the tortoise,
gain strength from the stallion,
gather experience and skills everywhere,
and set ourselves up for the challenge
ahead of us, which is to be great.

Wake up! Wake up!
let's get to work!
we have a long day ahead and a lot of goals to smash,
we have a big vision to birth into reality,
let's with strength and vigor,
go for what we want!

Thank you for your time.

Still me,

My tongue is like the pen of a ready writer.

Something about your poems makes me want to read them again.

Wake up, everybody. No more sleeping in bed. It is time to use our youth. When our bones become frail, we would sit beneath the moonlight and tell our tales. Well done.

Thank you so much. Absolutely, we need to work while we can so we can have wonderful tale to tell and a good example to model for coming generation.

You're flirting on the edge of rejection here @olawalium, as the word counts have started dropping, and you need to have a decent word count. I think @penderis was kidding around when he specified 300 words but your word count is getting down there.
The problem is your quality is 1st class and totally awesome, so I don't want to see you go to that level.
I think if it was someone else with mediocre material I probably wouldn't say anything, I'd just reject it. But I am passing this one! Besides, I like your writing as well.

I wanted to mention that since I had made that comment @olawalium, Penderis said that we can go fairly low on the poetry if it´s a quality poem, so still focus on your poem and not so much on the word count my friend, and as far as being a little while it's never worries hahahaha, we often have our strong priorities!!!
