Longer Living

Wallace Dean LaBenne

Kinder living, living kind
Cordial living frame of mind
Thinner living, living thin
Healthy living from within
Higher living, living high
Model living apple pie
Richer living, living rich
Easy living with no glitch
Gracious living, living grace
Pleasant living face to face
Larger living, living large
Able living taking charge
Joyful living, living joy
Happy living with each toy
Playful living, living play
Bubbly living every day
Living smartly, living smart
Prudent living from your heart
Longer living, living long
Simply living all along
