Fear not my child

Life will treat you right

Don’t get upset

If things are not alright.

It is okay to stumble

There is no need to grumble

Everyone takes a tumble

Remain ever humble.

Wipe the tears from your face

An outline of a smile you trace

Face every problem with a cheerful face

Let not a frown your face grace

Remember the world may at times seem cruel

May be difficult to find friends loyal

Life may appear a difficult toil

But we cannot give up or recoil

Let not another spoil your day

It is up to you to find your way

Mum is there with you today

It won’t be forever that she will stay

Grow up my child and learn to smile

A happy face will go a long mile

You don’t live on an island you see

You need to cope with all you see

Be your friend or be your foe

You will decide which way to go

God made you special so special you’ll be

But learn to cope with misery.
