Button Poem

Today I was lonely, but not for long
For I looked at my buttons, my heart sang a song
Today I was tired and burdened with care
As I looked at my buttons, Peace took a place there
Today I was fearful--the world is so hard
But gazing at buttons, I seemed once more glad
Today I was worried about friends and foe
When I look at my buttons--these worries all go
Today, I'm happy and filled with good cheer
For I have my button treasures each day in the year
