Take Pride In Thyself

Lisa Hine 1977



Recognize all you've done.
You cannot deny,
alls been fun.
Need to drop by,
to see the midnight sun.
Where the sand fly,
while on that long run.
Please come by,
and bring your pride.
Not your denying eyes.
So brush aside,
all your implies,
because you have strided,
from all that shyness.
To be casted aside,
World-wide.
