Be Of Good Cheer Poem by Paul Sebastian

Choose to be happy
Being cheerful is the key
Learn to talk cheerfully
Make that a habit daily

Dwell on happy thoughts
Recall moments of laughter
Recall queer moments, if not
Times you enjoyed friendly banter

Relax facial muscles, just smile
Your high could infect another to smile
Your happy-investment is worthwhile
Lift defeated spirits, to once again, fly

Act happy, mind and soul, follow
Trick your mind to believe you're cheerful
Bury hurtful past, psyche up, let cheer flow
You then court happiness, life turns colourful
