Rhyme Scheme: ABBBCDCC C EFEFDBG D B DH DIDD I

Motto heartening inspiringA
Framed above my pretty deskB
Never Shelley Keats or ByringB
Penned a phrase so picturesqueB
But in me no inspirationC
Rides my low and prosy browD
All I think of is vacationC
When I see that lucubrationC
-
-
DO IT NOWC
-
-
When I see another sentenceE
Framed upon a brother's wallF
Resolution and repentanceE
Do not flood o'er me at allF
As I read that nugatoryD
Counsel written years agoB
Only when one comes to borry Footnote Entered under the Pure License ofG
-
Do I heed that ancient storyD
-
-
TELL HIM NOB
-
-
Mottoes flat and mottoes sillyD
Proverbs void of point or witH
'KEEP A PLUGGIN' WHEN IT'S HILLY '-
'LIFE'S A TIGER CONQUER IT '-
Office mottoes make me wearyD
And of all the bromide bunchI
There is only one I seriD
Ously like and that's the cheeryD
-
GONE TO LUNCHI
