It looks so cold
This water, bold
As evening reaches crest
And yet I know
Aft icy blow
The warmth will be abreast
Is it so hard?
Why do I guard?
No logic can be found
Just jump right in
But wait! I grin
I will! The next time round
I promise, then
I’ll dive right in
I know the shock is short
Okay, let’s go!
Hang on! Go slow
No wait, I must abort
I must prepare
And get some air
For easy, it is not
To take the leap
It looks so steep
One chance is all you’ve got
This life’s not long
So sing your song
Leave worry in the past
For when you’re old
You’ll wish you’d told
Yourself to have a blast
Don’t be the one
To miss the fun
Make every second count
As fortune faves
The bold in waves
The risk worth all amount
Your life is yours
Not boring chores
This, please understand
It starts with you
That water, blue
Don’t waste away in sand
Just take a toe
And dip it slow
The cold will soon feel hotter
The time is here
No more “next year”
It starts with toe in water
How the World Should Work
