When the sun shines it gives us a shadow
As the day goes on the shadow will grow,
It makes us appear taller than we really are
Our height is doubled this is quite bizarre.
Now `worry` is a similar thing to this
There`s a theory, don`t be quick to dismiss,
Bear with me, maybe I can make you see
Read on and I am sure you will agree.
We think about a `worry` long and hard
Sometimes we find it hard to discard,
The longer we think the bigger it becomes
And it may even cause us some problems.
This worry then grows out of all proportion
Our mind is then clouded by distortion,
So like the sun makes our shadow grow
`Worry` often gives a small thing a big shadow.
