Americans Say, "we Are Fine"
Here, in the Russia, we know
about American "OK!" or " fine!"
Maybe, indeed
These words are the most right.
But I cannot say "I am fine",
If I have the hard problems.
Instead I share them with my friends,
Who will hear me, understand me,
Who, maybe, will give me a good advice.
My friends tell me
about their hard problems also,
And I always try to help to them.
Yes, when I am feeling bad,
I answer ," not well".
Many persons in Russia do too.
My dearest American friends!
If even you do not like it,
I ask you,
Tell me, please, about your problems,
And I shall hear you ,
I shall give you my kind words,
my understanding
and good advice.
But anyway, I ask you,
"Be happy!
Be "fine"!
