You left me and you did not turn Another row - we never learn No "sorry" words this time were spoken I just felt my heart was broken. All the many times of joy We were a happy girl and boy But the ring we bought was an empty token You never knew my heart was broken. All the places we have seen Mountains white and valleys green Moonlight kissing, holding hands Laughing as we made our plans. The things we did as a happy pair The future was coming and we didn't care Now alone I must go on And all the dreams I had are gone. So our book is ended, the cover torn Our children now will stay unborn Pleading words are what I choke on And you still don't know my heart is broken.

Sunny Morning Walk in the Park
Listen you Ducks and Squirrels this is a special morning my eldest child graduates today and her honoured future's dawning. She had good cause to march to the beat of a different drum but she's straight and works hard, loves her life, her God, and her fun. She's the first to get there from this side of the track she's honoured us all now and there's no looking back. So forgive me Ducks and Squirrels if I want to shout out loud from every tree and roof top I'm proud, I'm proud, I'm proud. 4th July 2002
Some Future?
With our conditional sunshine, and smoke-filtered rain, we alter nature's colours and flush our future down the drain. See our choking oceans and there's no expanding ice we harvest shrinking forests beneath El Nino skies. Cars, cars and still more cars designed to feed our yearning no problems to the planet as they are catalytically burning. The fish are going, tigers too let's make haste to the moon for it will be our only refuge if we don't do something soon.
Here and Now
We must enjoy the future The times we have had have gone There's more life behind us now Than is left as we go on. The only reason to be alive Is to make the good times last Just look forward to more happiness And not be a hostage to the past. We got things wrong sometimes But we survived and got to here We sorted the bad bits from the good And know what to cherish or fear. So enjoy every little thing you do Savor the moments as they arise Smell the flowers and hear the birds Accept that life is a beautiful prize.
