Greener Grass Poem by Edwin Baldwin

There's no harm in trying,,,
Some days you can't go wrong
There's no shame in failing…
Child when you do listen to my song

I've been happy..
Good Lord knows I've been sad
Faced the world head on
And took the good with the bad

Some days you wake up..
And wish they'd be over
Some days you wake up…
And there filled with clover………………….

I'm still warm… No I'm not cold
I won't live forever… May not grow old

I can't hang on tomorrow
I can't dwell on yesterdays sorrow
I won't see the days new dawn… If today I'm already gone

Like all of God's good creatures… Ya gotta keep, keeping on
Like all of God's good creatures… Ya gotta keep, keeping on

Sometimes you're out in the cold
Sometimes caught in the storm
Sometimes your bones are aching
Searching for some feeling good warm

Sometimes you'll feel all alone
Like you just can't find a friend
Sometimes the worlds on your shoulder
And you'll break at the bend
God is my witness
This to shall pass…
And it will bring
Greener grass………………………

I'm still warm… No I'm not cold
I won't live forever… May not grow old

I can't hang on tomorrow
I can't dwell on yesterdays sorrow
I won't see the days new dawn… If today I'm already gone

Like all of God's good creatures… Ya gotta keep, keeping on
Like all of God's good creatures… Ya gotta keep, keeping on
