Do Nothing If It Doesnt
Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)
Do nothing if it doesn't,
Feel to leave you with a benefit.
Do nothing if it doesn't,
Feel suitable to you to be a perfect fit.
Do nothing if it doesn't,
Satisfies and does this best.
Better than what some may suggest.
Do nothing if it doesn't...
Interest you!
Do nothing if it doesn't...
Have you walking barefoot too.
Do nothing if it doesn't...
Stays and occupies your mind.
Do nothing if it doesn't,
Keeps you awake everyday all the time.
Do nothing if it doesn't,
Makes you forget what it was you should do.
To remember..
Doing that done and nothing else!
