WAKE UP, THE START OF A NEW DAY,
FEEL SO TIRED BUT GOT TO EARN MY PAY.
ANOTHER DAY THE SAME OLD GRIND,
SOMETIMES, THINK I AM LOOSING MY MIND.
GET UP EAT SOME TOAST, DRINK A COFFEE,
IT'S HARD WORKING FOR THE BOSS YOU SEE.
START THE DAY IT'S HARD TOIL
DIGGING OUT THE RUBBLE AND THE SOIL.
WORKING HARD IN THE POURING RAIN,
WITH EACH SHOVEL MY MUSCLES FEEL THE PAIN.
THE RAIN FALLS DOWN MY FACE,
AND THE MUD LEAVES IT' S STICKY TRACE.
GET THE RUBBLE OUT WITH A PICK,
STONES HARD,DIRTY, AND THICK.
A CONSTRUCTION WORKERS LIFE AINT FUN,
BUT IT'S WORK THATS GOT TO BE DONE.
BLOOD, SWEAT, PAIN,SOMETIMES TEARS,
HAVE BEEN THE FOUNDATION OF BUILDINGS FOR YEARS.
IF IT WAS NOT FOR PEOPLE LIKE ME ,
A HOSPITAL OR OFFICE WONT BE BUILT YOU SEE.
SO WHEN YOU SIT IN YOUR NEW OFFICE, REMEMBER
MEN LIKE ME,
BECAUSE WITHOUT US THERE WOULD BE ,NO TOWN OR CITIES.

I liked this. It had decent flow and rhyme. My husband is an Industrial Plumber and I know he works hard. Right now he's working 7/10's. Kudos to you.
Oh and welcome to YPDC. I think you'll find this a very friendly place. Look forward to more of your writes. Peace.
Thumps ;o)
