The twelfth day

1) Before the bell a bored boy's digits drum the desk.
2) The rain's rat-a-tat resounds on a ridged iron roof.
3) Slow, single drumskin strikes mark a sad ceremony.
4) The soldier's smart snare sets the squaddies' steps.
5) Timpani drum beats/ pounding out/ rhythm of Mars by/ Gustav Holst.
6) Steel drums sing of surf and sun and sand.
7) Dame Evelyn's glorious glockenspiel defies deafness.
8) Ringo's refined, not raucous R & B rings out.
9) Brilliant Crazy Keith rocked and rolled and crashed and burned.
10) Animal makes mad music mayhem on the Muppets.
11) A drumroll delivers a diva to adoring devotees.
12) Each heartbeat marks and measures our mortal span.
