Style
Cheer frames a style that happy knows;
Joy seeds fond smiles in active glow.
Pain and gall come to test your wits;
Ample the sum as wonder fits.
Live ups and downs with sanguine heart;
A fool and clown make jest an art.
Take things easy in earthly times;
Peace of mind frees what faith now rhymes.
Change comes too soon when zest departs;
Bitter the boon in foolish parts.
Do what you must with mindful pace;
Switch to firm trust in time and space.
Watch what you say for words own poise;
Choice works life's play to power voice.
There is no jest in boomerang;
Fate primes your best when effect bangs.
Calm face blooms charm in poise and fit;
Keep safe from harm when peace owns wit.
Too soon, too late the moments breeze;
Go through life's gates and bear with sneeze.
The journey ends just as you start;
Set purpose grand to honour art.
Know and align sure heart and mind;
Seeking must find true soul design.
Seed a fond style that fits your taste;
Forge thoughts worthwhile with cheer and haste.
Just for today, be good to all;
Self-talk can stray to good not gall.
