Amost Never
When those gray clouds
gather up in a hurry to fret,
and hide the brightness
of the impatient sun that wants
to come out and chase away the darkness:
I take no umbrella and raincoat!
Almost never
I let feelings of worry upset me;
oh, a rainbow is a delight to see...
when breath needs air!
When I'm feeling
the weight of stress,
I turn to happy thoughts
and let them swing!
Almost never,
I look back to regret anything,
or the wishefulness that betrayed hearts sing;
almost never
I recall the faces of friends
that only smiled on occasions.
Almost never
I exchange hope for foolishness,
or love for vengeance and unforgiveness;
life can be a beautiful paradise or ugly hell,
why would anyone hear a mourning bell?
Why wouldn't anyone greet happiness?
