Hello Day, Good Morning

note: its my birthday today :D

Hello day!

Hello life!

Hello world!

Good marrow,

Good day,

Good morning I say!

Wake up little birdies

And sing your sweet songs

Wake up dear parents

To teach us right from wrong

Wake up bright sun

And light our way

Wake up sweet children,

It’s time to learn and play

I say get up,

Shout a great hello to the world

Get up,

Wake up,

Enjoy,

And treasure life’s treasures

While you still can

Don’t just sit there

Get up,

Wake up,

And get moving

Set your goals,

Chase your dreams,

Don’t stop trying,

Achieve!

Nothing is impossible,

If you just try

Where ever there is a will,

There is a way

So get up,

Wake up,

And enjoy the pleasures of

Life!

Poster Child

Always in the shadow

Blown away as nothing important

Compared against one another always

Described as mediocre and insufficient

Everything seems to be wrong

For we are never going to be

Good enough for them

High expectations and norms set

Instead of praising that done well

Just simply critiques all that’s not

Knowing that somebody somewhere

Lies a bit higher up on that scale

Matching up qualities and activities

Not once beating them to come up on top

Only coming close, but that is not enough

Poster child, poster child

Queen and king of a perfect world

Ruling unknowingly

Suspecting naught of all the criticisms

They bring upon those striving for that perfection

Utopia unattainable when constantly,

Violently berated for all

We have done that does not please

Xenophobic hypocrites

Yielding their power and words to tear down

Zealous individuals until they doubt all
