Thinking is quite a job to do,
but don’t you agree it’s good for you?
Write down memories from your PAST.
Make a start today — at last!
Consider what happened then and why;
Face the past, even with a sigh.
NOW: there’s lots of unpredictable stuff!
Surviving the present time might be rough.
Of course, you could pray about your life.
Face up to irritations and strife.
Writing down your new ideas? You should
Identify what’s helpful and good.
Anticipate the FUTURE with care.
Find ideas you might share.
Improve yourself with a thoughtful plan;
Face tomorrow and say, “I can!”
