Short Shrift

K-eep giving short shrift to throe, 
E-vade the zone of stress; 
N-ever pay any attention
T-o sorrow and sadness.

E-agerly give short shrift to woe, 
S-tay away from anxiety; 
T-ime to truly feel fine, 
E-arly tenth of February.
B-e happy in heart and mind, 
A-lthough your job is night shift; 
N-ever mind the darkness, just give shadow short shrift.
