Description
Tick Tock Boom Boom presents an inspirational compilation of poetry by author Michela Wolfe McGhee, exploring life as a poetic journey. This collection takes its title from one of her most beloved poems, in which Tick Tock represents the time on the clock and Boom Boom represents the pounding of heartbeats. Because no one knows how many heartbeats they have left in life, the message that these verses convey is that everyone should make the best and most of the times of their lives. Tick Tock Boom Boom embarks upon a thought-provoking journey to remind everyone that it only takes one person to make a difference; by joining our hearts and minds; together we can change the world. No One is Looking No one is looking Are you the man People see Full of strength and integrity Or behind that face Is there a place For unimaginable indiscretions No one is looking Are you the woman You claim to be In Proverbs so virtuously Or behind that lace Are you the face That smiles above A deep deception Who are you when no one is looking
