The Essentials for a Happy Life By Claire M
Ode to Food
Dear Food, You are eaten every minute of every day. Everybody loves you and everybody wants you. You are made to be put in people’s stomach to fill them up. Sometimes you're healthy, and sometimes you're not. But to tell the truth, Most people don't really care how healthy you are. We just want as much of you as we can get. You are the highlight to some people’s day, And people spend a lot of money over time just to get some of you. You are so enjoyable that I can't help but want you right now. Time is taken out of the day, just so that you can be consumed. No one can survive without you, You are just too important. You are part of our daily routine, And will be until the day we die. We love you to the moon and back food, And that will never change. http://vocaroo.com/i/s1FsTs8YOtyk
Do you ever stop and think? Do you ever stop and think? About why leaves are green, Or why the sidewalk is tan? Do ever stop and think about these things? We never stop and think about things like these Because we are always trying to get somewhere. If that's not the case, Then we really just don't care. We always have our heads stuck in our phones, Or we're doing something that isn't as important. We never stop and think about anything. We never let our imagination get the best of us. Stopping and thinking is the time when you can relax, It’s the time when you don't have to worry about anything. Stopping and thinking is the time when your imagination can run wild, And it can get the exercise that it needs. Do you ever stop and think? About why leaves are green, Or why the sidewalk is tan? Well now you can. http://vocaroo.com/i/s0dHVX7dtY0a
Life Life has its ups and downs, And life has its days around. Even though life can be tough, We still try our best. There isn't a prize at the end of the road, Just a stone that tells people about you. You never know what's coming your way in life, Everything's always a surprise. Nothing in life is simple, Everything takes perseverance. There isn't a prize at the end of the road, Just a stone that tells people about you. Life has its ups and downs, And life has its days around. Even though sometimes life is rough, We still push to get through all of the hard times. There isn't a prize at the end of the road, Just a life in another world. http://vocaroo.com/i/s08MHdgtVDUU
