Everyone goes to work
Runs a car
I just walk
Mind I don’t go far
Walk up to the Coop
Or bus straight into town
Life is simple now
Easy up and down
My occupation writing
Observations on a life
No tirades I hope not
Not really one for strife
Comments on the world I see
Insights if I can
Helpful stuff I’m after
About the human plan
Health is human riches
Body mind and heart
Everything else is commentary
How we play our part
Look out for one another
We cannot go alone
Stay in touch with those you love
Letter text or phone
Every day’s a good day
Takes us a while to learn
We feel defeated by our sorrows
To the wall we want to turn
But life refuses giving up
We really want to live
Hold on to that so what you do
You’ve got so much to give
