Jump out and say Boo,
And laugh at the moon;
Sing the praises of the sun,
And whisper in the day's dew;
Howl with the wolf,
That runs with wind;
Love the earth with your kith kin;
Swim with the fish on the warm days,
And shiver with excitement like a cat on the hunt;
See all that is around you,
And dance at the sight,
Of the moon, the sun, the wolf, the wind, the fish, and the cat.

I was going through a rough time when I wrote this. I wrote it as way to remind myself to enjoy the beautiful things life is made of.
