Start Each Day With a Gleam In Your Eye

Look out my window and what do I see The big ole sun shining back at me A day to celebrate this great world of ours To sing hallelujah and thank our stars Grumbling will surely get you nowhere Spread the good word for all to share Jump up for joy, it feels so damn good Why not invite the whole neighbourhood Your spirits will soar straight up to the clouds A joyous feeling you'll shout it out loud Take this advice I'm sending you guys Start each day with a gleam in your eye © Jack Ellison 2015

Thank goodness I read this after my second cup of Java! So much sunshine before you thoroughly wake up, can be detrimental to your health! Naw! Just kidding! If Dragon and Trolls can't do me in, then I have an iron clad constitution! LOL... Really! Grandpa Troll's like you when he gets up. He's immediately wide awake! First thing he does is carry me to the computer, with me still snoring, and puts me in front of the computer. Then serves me coffee. He wants his early morning Jack Attack. NOW!
