Glass half full or half empty?

Andrew Green Humour, Poetry March 12, 2018May 1, 2020 1 Minute

56E20376-DD93-49C2-9DB8-CC65646F83FE ‘Is your glass half full or half empty?’,
Is a question I don’t understand.

My glass is half full if you’re filling it.
Keep pouring please – to the top.

Half empty as soon as I drink from it.
I could do with you topping it up.

The secret’s to keep refreshing things
Not just to use life up.

It’s fine to be glass half empty
Just remember to fill it back up.

The only take I can get my head around. Maybe I’m just pedantic. 😃
