Summary of discontent
By May Kwek
Well dear readers
Its strange don’t you think?
That despite all their differences
The same tune they sing
Personally I would have thought
That the differences in wealth
Might have mattered as much to them
As the state of their health
But ah it seems we are all caught
In the winter of our discontent
What can I say?
We see things as men
The grass is greener on the other side
So the old saying says
But let’s all cheer up
We still have today
Whether we are near
Or whether we are far
See things as we hope
Or see things as they are
Perhaps for a moment in our minds
Examine our troubles and perhaps find
That they are so small after all
And reasons to be happy are much more
At least I find that is the case for me
When behind pessimism’s curtain I occasionally see
And finally look around and say
“What a fool I am let’s be happy today”
