Flowers For Children:
You Can Tell
What makes a Happy Child
or Person in Old Age?
Is it a Heart of Hate?
Is it a Mind of Rage?
Is it a Heart at Peace?
Is it a Mind at Ease?
What makes a Happy Child
or Person in Old Age?
What makes you feel Bad?
What makes you feel Glad?
What makes you feel Ill?
What makes you feel Well?
It’s so easy to tell. You can tell.
Your Heart and Mind will tell.
How does Shouting make you feel?
How does Quiet make you feel?
When you drink Clean or Dirty Water,
how does your Body feel?
When you breathe Clean or Dirty Air,
how does your Body feel?
When Others want to Hurt you,
how does your Body feel?
Your Heart and Mind will tell
when Others mean Ill or Well.
All Animals can tell
and you can tell, you can tell.
