Pick Up Your Blessings Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Those who don't get it wont.
Pick up 'your' blessings.
Those who wont just don't.
Pick up 'their' blessings.
And many rather stay in slumps,
To dump on somebody their funk.
So why be the one who sighs?
Or the one who empathizes?

Those who don't get it wont.
Pick up 'your' blessings.
Those who wont just don't.
Pick up 'their' blessings.
And many rather stay in slumps,
To dump on someone their funk.
So why be the one who sighs?
Or the one who offers to empathize.

Don't argue with those who choose to be fools.
Waiting to select through picked over gifts.
Retrieve your blessings and move from this.
Do it quick.
Then to leave.

Those who don't get it wont.
Pick up 'your' blessings.
Those who wont just don't.
Pick up 'their' blessings.
And the ones who rather stay in slumps,
To dump,
Their funk...
Witness this to leave.

Those who don't get it wont.
Pick up 'your' blessings.
Those who wont just don't.
Pick up 'their' blessings.
And the blessings you have are legit.
So don't argue with those who choose nitpick.

Those who don't get it wont.
And don't.
Those who wont get it don't.
But 'your' blessings are there to be recognized.
Keep your eyes open wide.
And move.

Those who don't get it wont.
Keep it movin'.
Those who wont get it don't.
Keep it movin'.
Those who don't get it wont.
And...
Just recognize 'your' blessings.

Those who don't get it wont.
Keep it movin'.
Those who wont get it don't.
Keep it movin'.
Those who don't get it wont.
And...
Pick 'your' blessings.
And...
Pick 'your' blessings.
In your mind kept recognized not to leave.
Pick up 'your' blessings,
To keep them in your mind to find and not to leave.
'Your' blessings.
Keep them in your mind to find and not to leave.
'Your' blessings.
Keep them in your mind to find and not leave.
Pick up 'your' blessings.
Pick up 'your' blessings.
Keep them in your mind and they wont leave.

Keep them in your mind.
'Your' blessings.
Visit them all the time.
'Your' blessings.
Keep them in your mind and they wont leave.
