Swim and Live Don'T Give In
8/29/16
Swim
And live
Don't Give
In
Light or dim
Above and below the rim
Work hard and take care off your kin
Especially when times are grim
The same goes for her and him
We can't always win
As this planet continues to spin
Things blow away in the wind
The hedges got a trim
And the cuttings were put in a bin
Not a fan of hymns
Or any kind of gin
The silver lining was thin
But so much good it did
Went off a whim
And used my all even if i hurt some limbs
At times I have sinned
Washed the dirt off my skin
And spent time outside doing things that were like being at a gym
