A friend is someone whose arms reach out
far beyond their reach,
to comfort a troubled soul,
and help them through their troubled times.

In the silence of the night
when whispers do not stir
you can see their shadows
slip quietly across the wall.

Dear Lord I have a small prayer,
I would like you to hear today,
and I hope that within your wisdom
that you will grant for us one day.

A wind from the north country.
Blows through the tapestry of my mind.
Like flowers in the wind.
I sway like a silver birch.
...
Down and down you spiral,
way out of control,
never know where you are going,
only knowing where you’ve been.
...
The world is full of troubles;
a lot of them are in the mind.
Worries of every kind,
which mar our waking day.

A good case in point is the smoking ban, well that has just got way out of hand. I agree no smoking in places where we eat, but now the idiots wants to ban you smoking in your own car! Now that is stretching it a bit too far. It makes you wonder what part of cloud cuckoo land their ideas come from.
...
My dreams sail through uncharted waters
looking for a place to land.
A place to become fertile
so I can touch them with my hand.
