If something is frustrating you

Intensely aggravating you

Hold tight on to your temper, never flap

Or explode 'cause it might harm ya

Try this trick instead, be calmer

Deep breath – count from one to ten and you'll not snap

If someone's irritating you

Perhaps infuriating you

It's pointless detonating like a bomb

Teach yourself this meditation

To improve your situation

Count from one to ten – your anger will be gone

If people aren't amusing you

Worse, verbally abusing you

Stay ultra cool and show them how it's done

You'll be proving you're more grown up

Arguments will not be blown up

Fill those lungs and in your head then count from one...

Two...

Three...

Four...

Five...

Six...

Seven...

Eight...

Nine...

Ten
