Get A Grip Before It Rips Poem by Alison Smith

Take a hold a strong hold
Get a grip make it bold
Need to keep this string
Which holds our life.

Run, go on run,
Faster now I want to see it fly
Don’t you know the kite of life
Is on that string you hold.

Pull, go on pull
Pull yourself up that string
Get your life back
Don’t dangle over the abyss

Take a grip a firm grip
Don’t let your life rip
Feel the strength you now hold
Time to show you’re bold.

Come closer, no…. closer
Here let me hold it too
This is far to important
You are much safer here.

Take a grip
Don’t let it rip
Pull it in
Close within

Life is short
Don’t make it a sport
This is important
Don’t waste a pant

Take this string and hold it tight
It’s the string that leads to the light
Trust its strength to pull you through
That’s right you will make it.
