The economy in chaos
Job markets spiraling down
Home foreclosures rising
News is bleak
Why turn on the TV?
Marriages are rocky
Children are scared
Bosses are grumpy
Life is tense
Why turn on the TV?
Banks grab stingy
CEOs finger greedy
Markets careen wild
It is what it is
Why turn on the TV?
Focus on outward order
Work at the job there is
Make a home anywhere
Chart a new attitude
Turn the channel!
Keep smiling when it’s tough
Open your heart wide to sight
Opportunities coming your way
Laugh ‘til your sides hurt
Be mentally tough and live like
My Grand Dad did: Love long!
