Sticks and Stones

A cup of tea is easy to make
A couple of minutes is all that it takes
Have a short rest and put up your feet
And when you feel tension, then you repeat

A walk in fresh air, is not hard to do
For just a moment, out in the blue
Switch off your mind, relax as you stride
And all of your problems will be denied

Showing respect can start straight away
If there's a problem, then don't delay
Altercations are avoided, when you don't proceed
Just let it blow over, if you've disagreed

Starting a fight, can happen so fast
When you're both mad, with insults that blast
Resorting to violence, is just a mistake
But there's more than one way, to taking a break
