They say to look at life
As a cup that is half full;
But, who are the "they",
Who came up with that rule?
However, I think that tonight,
I might give it a try,
Instead of just sitting
And having a good cry!
I am still breathing,
So I guess everything is OK;
And...I can still feel pain,
So I know I'm alive today.
The thumb still pops when moved,
The hip cracks when I walk;
But I know my tongue is OK,
Because I'm still able to talk!
Even though I'm black and blue,
That means the blood's still flowing;
And when water leaks from my eyes,
The nose needs a good blowing.
Even though I creak and groan,
And my parts ache a lot,
I still have a nice warm bed,
Not a damp cemetery plot.
But I might have to empty my cup
Into a sturdy bowl;
For the way things have been going,
