Keep Yourself Accessible Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Did you dropp your smile?
Something is missing on your face.
And I know I haven't seen that in a while.

Did it hurt?
Have you deserted it,
To carry that frown?

Don't be down.

Keep yourself accessible.
Turn around.
Get rid of that frown.

Keep yourself accessible.
Don't dry up like a vegetable.
Or a grape reduced to a raisin juiced.
Showing you've been pruned,
From a plum someone had used!

Keep yourself accessible.
Turn around.
Get rid of that frown.
Invite more sun to come around.

Keep yourself accessible.
Become a fine wine...
That's been aged over time.
And decide in your mind...
The life you live welcomes Sunshine!

Keep yourself accessible.
With a spring in your step,
Bouncing in your prime.
Yes...
Keep yourself accessible.
Turn around.
Don't be down.
Keep yourself accessible.
And in your mind welcome Sunshine,
Today.
Hey...
And in your mind welcome Sunshine,
Today.
Hey...
And in your mind welcome Sunshine,
Today.
Hey...
Keep yourself accessible.
And in your mind welcome Sunshine,
Today.
