Be not the tear for saddest times,
And doth all men shed sadness oft’?
For depressing thoughts must be overridden
by the beautiful love of caring women.

Lest life take its toll and time ware away
What once was the beauty of every day,
Shed all your tears, every one that you can,
For letting-go-sadness is worth being a man.

So love, love protects ye all,
To give and receive, for no reason at all.
Share love as a gift to make people feel loved—
They shall be thanking you somehow.  

I am the two-toed wanderer
