Get Out and Live

Did you laugh today Did you tell anyone hey Did you get out of your space And join the human race Did you take more than a glance At the beauty in this land Did you notice the sun’s place And it’s feel upon your face Did you offer a grin Why not? it cost nothin’ Did you say something nice Helps forget any vice Do you see how small We are after all And how one little jump Is a big pick me up So get out of your zone Later return home To recount your days events And how pleasant the time went If you’ve never tried You can’t say that I lied Try it and see Then get back to me So get up and stretch Touch your toes, forget stress Get out and live Experience, get and give Written - 01/14/21 - 9:28 AM
