Life's Too Short

Don't let others get you down Or cause your face to wear a frown Be your best for you alone And don't waste time to gripe and groan Life's too short to hold a grudge Or tattletale and play the judge So wear a smile, be fair and kind And keep good thoughts within your mind SIDE NOTE: Not always easy to do, especially with what life throws at us. But we have to work at it daily for the sake of our health and well being

Your poem carries a very positive and encouraging message, reminding us to focus on ourselves and not let others bring us down. The rhyming scheme and flow make it a joy to read, and the last two lines truly capture the essence of the poem. It's a great reminder to always choose kindness and positivity. Thank you for sharing this uplifting piece with us.
