Jack Ellison Poet Quatrain

Life's a Grabber

Life's a grabber, ain't it?
With all of its up and downs
Never know what's in store
Best to be a clown!

Whatever life hurls at you
Just laugh and giggle away
Time to worry tomorrow
Tomorrow's another day!

This is my own philosophy
Won't work for everyone
Give it a whirl, let it go
Kick it and have some fun!

Life will be long and happy
Sunshine every day
Don't worry bout the forecast
Just smile and chuckle away!

Life's a grabber, ain't it?
Don't waste it on some frowns
Click your heels, skip along
Turn nasty upside down!
