Another Silly Rhyme

If your life gets in a tangle
And your nerves start to jangle
Make up a silly rhyme
Ridiculous or sublime
Write it down with a flourish
Your spirits this will help to nourish
Dance around like a fool
Foolishness sometimes is cool
Open up your windows wide
So passers-by can see inside
Some may think this outrageous
Most will find it contagious
Now dance out into the street
And see all the folk with happy feet
Tapping, rapping, swinging along
Singing that silly rhyming song
That you sat and wrote today
That helped to blow all blues away
