We are, each of us, responsible.
Song Saa, this idyllic isle, now warns us, what we should dread. Explaining how, the life we know hangs by a thin, and thinning, thread. Careless, we abuse our Earth, to satisfy desire, Despite the warnings, the life we love, will certainly expire. Dig the coal, pump the oil, let no-one bid us nay, Pollute …
My Favourite Place.
Now you, Dear Reader, may in truth suppose, That I will write of verdant pastures near, Of humming birds and scents of summer’s rose Or Nature’s beauty, or the fallow deer. But if this special place gives joy to me, To gain this joy, I must indeed be there, But not alone! I’m sure I’d …

So how can we reject an ‘Isil’ bride? Her chosen way, was not what we might choose But let us not, her honest faith, …
Political electioneering
We are becoming submerged in a cacophony of news, Each day the avalanche continues, many vibrant views, Often exaggerated to whet our appetite With opinions, unrelated to what is wrong or right.
