I have paid no mind or ode or due to Sadness
just sat there and watched it and became a witness
I did not open my doors and greet Unhappiness
though I saw it outside jumping around in distress
I have refused resolutely to welcome in or invite Tears
with that silly habit of waving a Pass like some old dears
I have thankfully, great difficulty recognizing Fear
saw it hazily once or twice but it just made me sneer


I will apologize for my mistakes like no tomorrow
and know I will never purposely cause any one sorrow
I will beg the kindest pardon and profusely apologize  
were I to unintentionally harm another in actions unwise
I will seek with all to ease and help like a harvest moon
and share peace, joy and brightness like the sun in June
I will not, take this as given, apologize for being who I am
just as I wish same for you, so our time will not be  a sham


I will let the fickle lovers cavout and dance with sadness
for later in anguish, they will be witnesses to blindness
I will let the wicked mean minded welcome Unhappiness
before too long it will be a permanent guest in their nests
I will watch the pitiless deserving shed their burning Tears
many have ruined and mercilessly left others without cheers
I will hear raging ferocious fears that will plague evil-doers
retribution and vengeance will always find those with darkness
