"Don't Worry" (aka. The Autumn Sermon) by Chris Walden

The shroud of night

Has covered us all.

Each of our lives

Are going to fall.

The chill of the wind

Comes with grayness of night.

None of us think

That we can see the light.

Why the down face?

Life isn't so bad.

Life into happy means happy,

Not that you're sad.

The power of the smile

Can get you a mile.

And warm you up good

Like your favorite food.

Life has it's ups and downs,

So buckle your seatbelt

And hold on tight, knowing

That there's a good side to life.

So "Don't worry -

Be happy,"

And make this new day

From December into May!
