An old adage that is good
Goes like this: “Can’t never Could”

Don’t say “can’t”; if never tried

If you succeed, what a thrill

Can’t a word that I just hate
“I’ll try it”, now that sound great!...

A divine paradox 
God alone is, an old adage
Open Pandora’s box 

With no load on our chest 
Set fearful thoughts to rest
Peaked rapture, bliss throb crest

Be carefree
