Clear your desk
Start again
Fresh and new
No baggage to drag in.
Take what you need
That’s proven time
And time again.
No crushing doubts
No what ifs’ to cast about
Just joyous notes
Happy times to think about.
This is now
This is your chance
Start anew
Begin the dance

What happened to kindness, generosity and gratitude?
Are they still here, hidden somewhere or gone forever?
They are in our hearts waiting for each of us to let them free to be part of our lives.
Open your heart and let them soar.

Christmas comes but once a year
As does Easter and New Years
Celebrate, have some cake
Eat the treat Christmas makes.
Travel round
See the smile on the child
That believes in Santa Claus.
Feel the joy
Feel the cheer
Wrap a present for someone dear.
Christmas comes but once a year
So we should raise a glass
Of hearty cheer
And bless this day throughout the year!

Running late.
No time, no date.
Must be going
See you when I’m no longer late.

Stomach hurts, pain today
Feel like just running away
Instead I’ll curl up, be myself
See the day go on it’s way
To some place good far away
There I’ll join when I’m fine
With no more hurt, no more pain
See you there, not far away.
