New dawn new day cup of joe to begin the day,starting in line helping to create more urban decay
Waiting out winters feeding the flock, spring warmth brings bringing ceaseless hours for that new crop
Daily mail brings new news while men in a truck pick up the muck,while another prepares to make repairs while caught up in the drudgery
Clerks & cashiers line up with peers at home behind desks or registers ,more & more simply wanting to beat that clock
Many in uniform protecting the rest from the next storm ,defending all of us & themselves stubbornly
Famous factories forged many generations in fire ,painting a lifestyle for many to admire,building a nations foundation in solid rock
Times change ,full circle to a broad range ,equal rights brings new light ,hoping to help move many upwardly
Wheels of rubber or of steel always moving ready to help seal a deal ,someone at the helm across the nation or around the block
Many more labor with lumber like ants on erector sets,from floors to steeple ,finalizing with grass & shrubbery
Miles of coastline mean fisherman don't flounder,line or net they get what they get anything to feed the ever growing flock
Others eager to learn for new knowledge they do yearn ,teachers take on the task to guide the classrooms fortunately
So paid in sweat equity or in blood for the brood, many gather at the end of the day but never forget to tip the barmaid or tender at your local brewery. R.C.
A little fun for labor day! Maybe could have went another way & thoughts for all those callouses and bulging discs or grief some of our bodies pay for that payday:) My best to people. Thanks for reading & your thoughts are helpful. Rick
