| An Attitude of Gratitude  [+ favourites]
A man once felt some sorrow
at the loss of a shoe,
then he saw another,
whose legs were less than two.
He still looks kind of funny
with shoes shy of a pair,
but now he sees he's better off
and so he doesn't care.
An attitude of gratitude
is what one ought to say,
has put a smile on his face
the Mona Lisa way.
To cherish every moment,
to make life full of fun,
just sing a little diddle
and bask under the sun.
A cheery disposition,
is something rather rare,
but try it and you'll see,
it's worth it if you dare.
