DON'T THINK

Don’t think the sun is bright
Just because it’s yellow
Don’t think someone’s happy
Just because they smile
Don’t think the night is sad
Just because it’s dark
Don’t think someone is down
Just because they frown
Don’t judge something too soon
Just because it seems
Don’t think something seems
Because the outside says
You have to feel and see
Before you know
What something is, what something says
Instead of something seems
Because a person is not happy
Just because they smile
And a person is not sad
Just because they frown
