With Humanity

With humanity it may be all is not okay
But I meet a good person or two every day
And though my dealings with a few have caused me to regret
A very bad person I cannot say I've met
...

Here's To Anti War People

To so called patriots and pro war people and those to enlightenment blind
They are not to be trusted and are traitor kind
But they march for peace and I see that as great
And they are the people that I celebrate
...

Two Serious Looking Old Ladies

Two serious looking old ladies out walking arm in arm
They don't have happy faces they seem to lack in charm
They do seem quite judgemental the way they stare at me
My eyes can only tell me what my eyes believe I see.

A Double Decker Load Of Sheep

A double decker load of sheep were bleating as the small town the truck passed by
I thought to myself they must be uttering to me a help us cry
Their loud bleatings told of their stress of them a five hour drive ahead
Today is their last day of life tomorrow they will be dead

In Spring his kindred birds sing on the hedgerows in the fields where Finnow waters flow
By Millstreet Town to the Blackwater far north of here and far away
When I was younger and fitter and stronger the years have left me looking gray

On The Goddess Of Nature

So many years I've known her yet so little of her know
Yet my love for her does not lessen it only seems to grow
Amazing Mother Nature her beauty everywhere
The Goddess of this Planet Earth none with her to compare
...

The Mob

The mob are out there baying for blood though for his crimes he'll pay
He would not receive a fair trial if they did have their way
They would hang him from the nearest tree and leave him there to die
We do not need the injustice of the mob and that is not a lie
...

Weerloos

With their strong beaks for their dark seeds they shred pine cones the yellow tail black cockatoos
The huge dark brown parrots of the mountains that some refer to as weerloos
From the calls they make in communication especially whilst they are in flight
To see them in small flocks is a thing of beauty and makes for a spectacular sight

How Can One Admire One Like Him

How can one admire those who prosper on others financial pain
And they even boast in public of their ill gotten gain
To prey upon the vulnerable that hardly does seem fair
Amongst 'the haves' of every town many a tainted millionaire
