Life's Fail.

Life's Fail.

 

What would you know of..........

 

The myriad of colours in the skies caused by the Northern lights,

Or that symbolic twinkling southern cross?

Sand that bites on the wind !

Air so clear you can see for miles,

Glistening crystals on firmly packed snow.

 

Places where you'll never hear a car or a plane, ever.

To have experienced what it's like to have flown like a bird on high.

The adrenalin rush that the fear of dying brings.

The common bond a breed of men can share.

 

To stand on a piece of this planet, where no ones stood before,

and probably nobody else ever will.

All these things I done and  more!

But I'll never have the chance to share, a repeat of any of them with you.

To teach you of the wonders of life!

Beyond the drugs and the alcohol.

 

I'm too old now, to start again............
