The Day Starts With Music

At 5.51am

the birdsong begun.

Amen, hooray,

end of the night,

beginning of the day.


If I hear the magpies,

in the morning, of a

new day dawning,

I know it is going to be joyous,

and one worth exploring.


Let’s get going,

let’s get on our way,

let’s get this bright new day

on its way.


There is a big, bright world

out there, to envelope us

in its splendor, let’s go, 

let’s run out into it,

to its charms,

and what it has to give us.

and surrender.

True Love

True love,

is sublime,

like lemon grass,

honeysuckle and thyme


Like fine wine,

exquisite strawberry jam,

getting better over time,

like a leg of honey ham.


People who can,

take a chance and ran

into each other’s arms

tasting each other’s charms.

F.U.D.

It is a great thing

being with people you feel safe

who are not afraid,

like you feel 

in other parts of your life,

those people are so hard to find.

Afraid,

so afraid,

told to be afraid,

be afraid.

"The world is a terrible place we will save you,"

say the politicians,

and big business,

all lies, you know,

they want to save their own positions,

that's all.

You feel afraid

we all feel afraid

society tells us

to be afraid,

in this brave new world,

so afraid,

where technology will save us,

everyone is afraid,

are taught to be afraid,

from a very young age,

because it suits so many people

for us all to be afraid.
