Feasting
FEASTING
We feast on many occasions
And are happy to celebrate
Weddings and birthdays remember,
And others that fall on some date.
At Christmas and Easter we indulge
With feasts and picnics galore.
Anzac's a day of remembrance
Of the war on Gallipoli's shore.
If we could create another day
And give to the world access
We'd be inviting all to feast
At a banquet of happiness.
Imagine what would happen
If no anger or frowns in sight,
The effect would be dramatic
If we had such an appetite.
There'd be no feasting restrictions
From this banquet of happiness.
You can smile laugh and enjoy
A day you'll remember and bless.
A banquet like this could spread
Like a virus so hard to remove,
If feasting for more than one day
The world would surely improve.
So cheer up, choose to be happy
Come to this banquet that's free.
A smile speaks in all languages,
Try it and you'll be a devotee.
