A Cure For What Ails

When Life hands you a lemon sour, You're feeling down, demeanour dour, The day ahead seems dull and grey, Resolve to be upbeat. Find a way To think pleasant thoughts. Life is short And negative thinking? It achieves naught! Resolve to give yourself a treat, Ponder on things pleasantly sweet: Soon the sun will disperse the cloud The day will brighten: sing aloud. Crack a joke: take time to smile, See the blues depart in a while. Abandon your feelings of woe, Return to living. Here's how you go: Take the lemon, though sour it is Squeeze hard, add sugar and fizz, Brew yourself a tonic or elixir, Then drink deep! It's a real Life fixer! Rhymer August 10th, 2016.
