Lose the “T”

It’s not what I can’t
It’s what I can
My T shirt reads
“Lose the ‘T’
Always achieve, every day
Write a song, read a book
In desperation
Do the laundry
You may fail
Today
But always, always try
Too easy to mourn for what you’ve lost
Good health is for someone else

Not me
Not poor me
No, Not poor me
Rich me
Look at what I can do
Not always every day
But in a small way
I can do
Yes
I can do.
