IF FAILURE WAS NOT AN OPTION,
AND YOU COULD BE WHAT YOU WANTED TO BE,
WOULD YOU REACH DOWN AND STIR UP SOME GUMPTION?
OR WOULD YOU SAY, "WELL, NOW, THEN, SAYS ME"!!!!
I COULD BE A GLORIOUS SINGER
IF I COULD ONLY CARRY A TUNE,
OR I COULD WRITE A BEST-SELLING NOVEL
BUT COULD I GET IT DONE BEFORE JUNE?????
CUZ I DON'T LIKE TO WORK IN THE SUMMER
WHEN THE WEATHER IS SUNNY AND BRIGHT!!!!
AND THE AUTUMN IS MY TIME FOR THINKING
GREAT THOUGHTS KEEP ME UP HALF THE NIGHT !!!!!!
I GET STARTED AND SUDDENLY IT'S CHRISTMAS
WITH SHOPPING AND PARTIES GALORE!!!!
AND YOU CAN'T WRITE AN EPIC OF NOBEL PRIZE STATURE
TRIPPING OVER TOYS THAT ARE STREWN ON THE FLOOR.
AND THE NEXT THING YOU KNOW IT IS SPRINGTIME,
EARTH TURNS GREEN, ROBINS SING, FLOWERS BLOOM!!!
I JUST CAN'T WORK NOW, I'M TOO LAZY THESE DAYS
AND BY THE WAY, ISN'T IT ALMOST JUNE?????

Lighten it up, a friend said, and so I tried with this silly rhyme.
Reminds me of a song from an old Bing Crosby movie, Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court. Do you remember it??????
The chorus goes:
We're Busy doing nothing
Working the whole day through
Trying to think of things not to do
We're busy doing nothing
Isn't it just a crime?????
We'd like to be UNHAPPY BUT.....
We really don't have the time.
