words from the universe

Searching for some inspiration this morning, I picked out a book and randomly flipped to a page. I thought some Shel Silverstein was bound to be uplifting. Here's what came up:

Helping

Agatha Fry, she made a pie,

And Christopher John helped bake it.

Christopher John, he mowed the lawn,

And Agatha Fry helped rake it.

Zachary Zugg took out the rug,

And Jennifer Joy helped shake it.

And Jennifer Joy, she made a toy,

And Zachary Zugg helped break it.

And some kind of help

Is the kind of help

That helping's all about.

And some kind of help

Is the kind of help

We all can do without.

Me, myself, I'm not sure which is which at the moment. I'm still looking for a little clarity.
