"We Plan To Keep You Hopping"

I’m glad we have you out there,
In our Tomorrowland,
To keep us Posted with the news,
That soon will be at hand.

It’s good to know that you have dreams,
And pleasant ones most ways.
Tomorrows filled with lovely dreams,
Will get us through our days.

Don’t worry about sadness,
You’ve had more than your share,
Step back and let the rest of us,
Have some, and make it fair.

A little bit of sadness,
Is like the salt in food,
It brings life’s pleasant flavor out,
And hogging it is rude.

Keep sharing your dreams with us,
Wake up, then give a shout.
The biggest pile of sadness,
Needs lots of spreading out.

Thanks Bob. Was that one of your own?

Whosever it is, the thought is much appreciated. Thankyou.

Now that you have us hopping, remember to be kind to our fellow hoppers :-)

Be kind and tender to the Frog,
And do not call him names,
As "Slimy skin," or "Polly-wog,"
Or likewise "Ugly James,"
Or "Gap-a-grin," or "Toad-gone-wrong,"
Or "Bill Bandy-knees":
The Frog is justly sensitive
To epithets like these.
No animal will more repay
A treatment kind and fair;
At least so lonely people say
Who keep a frog (and, by the way,
They are extremely rare).

"The Frog" by Hilaire Belloc
