SNOWY DAYS AND THURSDAYS (Shall Not Get Me Down) A Ditty from way, way, way, way back When Melancholia makes you frown Reach deep within your soul, For Happiness lies there deep down Just takes a slight cajole Yield not to weight of gravity The choice is yours to make With focus spent on levity A light heart shall partake Let not those burdens callous thee; Take charge of them instead. Cast out those wretched thoughts and see You'll cheer your troubled head! [This message has been edited by Nan (edited 02-08-2001).] |

"yield not to weight of gravity" Indeed, how to battle the lines drawn of life in its vagaries. Yet on into the fray again and again we throw ourselves. Thought inspiring words, you bring. |

Sometimes, in spite of our best efforts, we need help lifting the gloom... which is why I cherish the smile-givers. *S* This gem cheered my head considerably!!! (But what's snow? *G*) |
