The Melancholy Road

There’s a road called ‘Melancholy’,
I know it well,
I do:
It starts at poor, poor me,
And ends in
Boo hoo hoo!

It’s
full of nasty potholes,
It’s quicksand with
A view;
If you stay on Melancholy,
It will keep you
Feeling blue.

To exit melancholy
Is not that hard
To do,
Just take the path called sharing,
That runs from
Me to you!
