GET A TRANSFER, by ANONYMOUS First Line: If you are on the gloomy line Last Line: That lands you at the station hope -- / get a transfer! Subject(s): Hope;worry; Optimism | ||||||||
If you are on the Gloomy Line, Get a transfer. If you're inclined to fret and pine, Get a transfer. Get off the track of doubt and gloom, Get on the Sunshine Track -- there's room -- Get a transfer. If you're on the Worry Train, Get a transfer. You must not stay there and complain, Get a transfer. The Cheerful Cars are passing through, And there's lots of room for you -- Get a transfer. If you're on the Grouchy Track, Get a transfer. Just take a Happy Special back, Get a transfer. Jump on the train and pull the rope, That lands you at the station Hope -- Get a transfer. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...HOPE IS NOT FOR THE WISE by ROBINSON JEFFERS SONNET by JAMES WELDON JOHNSON SPRING FLOODS by MAURICE BARING SONNET: 9.
