PESSIMIST VERSUS OPTIMIST

 

Anon

 

Cries little Miss Fret,

In a very great pet:

‘I hate this warm weather; it’s horrid to tan!

It scorches my nose,

And it blisters my toes,

And wherever I go I must carry a fan.’

 

Chirps little Miss Laugh,

‘Why, I couldn’t tell half

The fun I am having this bright summer day!

I sing through the hours,

I cull pretty flowers,

And ride like a queen on the sweet-smelling hay.’
