Instead of getting up today
lets get down on the ground
to dig in the dirt and play
looking for ways to not be found.

Lets not go to work today
but go to have fun and share
it will confuse everyone to say,
"Why are they here without a care?"

When someone interrupts you say,
"I'm glad you decided to ask me,
how can I help you along this day?"
They surprised to this response will be?

When children ask you to come outside,
say, "Yes, let us all go out and enjoy!"
What happiness you'll bring beside,
the happy smiles and a Father's silent joy.

So do the opposite today and tonight
make every thing you do backward
then your whole world will be bright.
Just take this old rusty knight's word.

For we were sent here to by happy
not sad and dull but cheerful and light.
We need to turn things around snappy;
before it gets too late to get this right.
