Look around the place where you work.
Can something be improved? you ask.
Efficiency would certainly be good . . .
Should I volunteer to do some task ?
Look around your house— inside, outside.
Ask yourself, is there a better way ?
Consider all the details here and there . . .
Maybe jot down your ideas today.
Think about your family, young ones, old ones.
Who can I give some compliment today ?
Who might appreciate my careful idea ?
What’s the best way to nicely say ?
Don’t neglect to look now in your mirror.
Is there something important to do ?
A scowl, a frown, a too-humorous look . . .
Can I do better when I look at you ?
Give yourself a thoughtful grin,
Yes, I can improve my life view.
I’ll start right now, and be thankful
Maybe that’s an example for you . . .
