Why Do Not
 

 

Why do not

talk and laugh,
dance and sing,


But all day

bow your head,
bent your waist,
worrying and vexing?


 

No matter whether

you like to be

frolicking or fretting,

 

Sun is still shining,

clouds is gliding,

birds are still singing,

flowers are smiling.

 

Birds sing to call you,

My dear little fool,

Do not be trapped,

jump out and hotfoot!

 

Flowers smile to tell you,

My dear old fool,

If you do not shed them,

soon will be folded!

 

 

Feel are sick?

Go see a doc.

If it can be cured,

it will be cured.

If it cannot…

it’s your lot.

 

Have no money?

Go get a job.

Do not care much,

how much you get.

Too much is useless,

life needs not a gob.

Love met a heartless?
Luck has not arrived yet.
Why take it too hard?
Anywhere may have a dearest.

Something is unfair?

Someone is not good?

Give the good a hand.

Give the bad a boot.

 

Give the poor some help.

Help the potential some food.

 

So the good will be

more and more than...

The bad will be

less and less then.

 

So you can,

right now and then,

talk and laugh,

sing and dance.

 

Live a long life.

Jolly and jubilant!
