Be Happy!






Always have a happy thought
before you leave your bed
to chase away the clouds of gloom
that gather 'round your head.
Think of pretty kittens
or some puppies in a box.
Think of old man Madoff
behind bars and many locks.
Think of frost designing lace
upon your window pane.
Think of winter wind chills
that drive polar bears insane.
Think of gorgeous sunsets
on the beach of Waikiki
or batteries that will not crank
in cars decidedly.
Think of eggs and sausage
and some French toast on the side.
Think of your new diet
as you chew on cold rawhide.
Think of birds upon the wing
with their melodious calls.
Think of empty spaces
in the biggest shopping malls.
Think of dolphins in the sea
cavorting in the sun.
Think of traffic all backed up
from here to Bloomington.
Think of all the good deeds done
by quiet, humble, folk.
Think of all the stock options
that soon will make you broke.
Yes, happy thoughts are just the thing
to greet each pearly dawn.
They help you realize that life
is sure a big fat con.
