Positive attitudes … actions
SHOULD chase … blues …away
But …mind you …they won’t stay
Without a proper environment
In which …to play.

Just dwell upon the good things that you could possibly do
Then life will seem much lighter and you will not be blue.
See the stars that twinkle at night
see the sun shining so bright
Hear the birds sing in the tree
Love your life, be as it be
God is there to take the strain and listen to your fear
Never will He leave you ..He is always near
love from me xxxx
