Worrying About Something Poem by Francis Duggan

Worrying About Something



Worrying about something does not make the worry go away
And one small worry can grow to a bigger worry as the wise one does say
The town's wealthiest man at fifty among the deceased now lay
Worrying gave to him cancer he was buried today
With two teenage daughters to grieve him and a pregnant wife
But thanks to him they are financially independent for life
But worrying not good for one's health why otherwise pretend
To his life worry brought a premature end
The people with the gift of laughter are lucky indeed
It comes to their rescue in their time of need
So lucky are they who can laugh their cares away
Health-wise a good sense of humor huge dividends does pay
The town's wealthiest person does now rest in peace
Stress related cancer from life for him a slow painful release.
