If you could paint a picture of a memory

What would the subject of the painting be?

Would it be of a happy time spent with your family?

Or of a holiday spent by the sea?

We all have memories that give us pleasure

And there are those that we would like to forget

The painting should be one that gives us pleasure

And helps us to forget the things that we regret

So why don’t you paint a picture of a memory

Which you can hang on your living room wall

Then every time you pass the painting you will get pleasure

Because of the happiness that you will recall

Hopefully these glimpses of a happy memory

Will help you to combat the gloom of the day

And will strengthen your determination

As you continue your journey on life’s way
