Stamp It Out!

When you wander life's long hallways,

And you stumble on a doubt,

Do not entertain it,

Just simply stamp it out!

But when you walk those hallways longer,

And a thoughtful questions found,

Do not stamp out this one

Til you've gained the higher ground.

Yet you walk a little quicker,

When you find a grand put-down

And why don't you keep on walking,

To avoid the lurking frown.

So remember, questions: golden;

To be avoided: that's the doubt;

And anything like those putdowns,

You just simply stamp it out!
