Temperament Poem by Edwina Reizer

Temperament



Some people are easy going
and some are so uptight.
Both types are completely different
just like day and night.

It's fun to be around the ones
that take life as it comes.
They're comfortable to be with.
They're like a tune that hums
a song of sweet contentment.
They're at peace in every way,
never flying off the handle
at something you might say.

Let's think about the others
and try to understand
why they're so excitable
and get so out of hand.
They're like a ticking time bomb
waiting to explode.
They make you feel so nervous.
It's time to hit the road.

Give them time to cool right down
and quiet down a bit.
Slowly inch yourself back in.
Let their temper quit.

Sometimes it makes me wonder
if anyone can change
the way their personality
makes them act so strange?
They say it takes all kinds
to make the world go 'round.
I try my best to get along.
It's best for me, I've found.
