Jack Ellison Poet Quatrain

Hello Day

Hello day! I'm ready for you
Show me what you got
Try to put a kink in my armour
Just gimme your best shot

Go ahead I dare you, pal
Nothing can put me down
See this grin across my kisser
No way you can make it a frown

I really don't got no negatives
So how'd like dem apples
It won't do you no damn good
I'm a toughie for you ta grapple

You thought you had me yesterday
But I rebounded real quick
So don't you try ta mess with me
A fight is what makes me tick

My happiness is here to stay today
I feel it in me bones
Happiness wins another round
So you won't be hearing no moans!
