I was angry,
My heart was hurting.
My head was pounding.
I was feeling so bad,
Yes I was so sad.
My mother smiled and said,
“Close your eyes, and count till ten”
I slowly felt my anger go then.
My heart was happy,
My head was happy,
I was happy.
Everyone around me was happy.
My mother said,
“Never get angry”
It takes your happy feelings away.”
