Cold and Thirsty, Hot and Mad,
Sad and Tired, Sleepy and Sad,
In love, Hungry, Happy and Shy,
All these feelings that we try,

Some days we feel so cold,
A drink of juice would make us bold,
Other times we're hot with rage,
But a cool breeze can turn the page,

Sadness comes and goes away,
A happy thought can brighten the day,
When we're tired, we need some rest,
And sleep will help us do our best,

Being in love is such a thrill,
It makes our hearts dance and spill,
Hunger pangs make us crave,
A yummy meal that we can save.

And then there's shyness we all feel,
But with friends, it's not such a big deal,
So let's embrace all these emotions,
And ride the waves of our own devotions.
