will you get off my back
get right on that track
get the ball rolling each line
get to rhyme it every time

get up in the morning, wash that face
get dressed, gotta beat that race
get combed, get dressed, late today?
get going, get in the car, get away.

get straight to the point
get along with the joint
get over your cold
get into new molds.

get off your bum
get down and drum,
get to your seat
get into a beat.

get through and contend
get around the bend,
get with it
get a life!

Diamond,

Have been to your poetry site and find
one of your poems neat, especially the one
that defines terms in a playful way

Martin - This poem begets a response. That second stanza was painful, because that is what I do every morning Monday through Friday. Just the thought of waking up early in the morning makes me cringe.

Why that's okay Diamond, I even wrote a poem with you in mind called 'Ode to Diamond's Sax'!
