To my Friends: Some Notes and Observations.

I live to express myself

And no-one can stop me,

But if I could make money doing it

I’d be twice as happy!



I have written inspired work

A play: Inspiration,

Music, Doctor Fish,

Paintings and Poems.



I have struggled to make my breakthrough

And have been under great pressure.

In some senses

I have reached my limit.



This, my wit’s end has been passed

And I’ve kept going further!

I’ve tapped the muse

And been favoured and

Had the sun shine upon me.



I try,

How I try

To be optimistic.

Two Thousand negative thoughts

Haven’t stopped me,

I am still banging on doors.



My struggle could be ending!

Will I still be able to create works of talent?

I have thrived by being

Outside of Society!



When you’ve been trying

To crack the world

For forty years,

You’d better watch out

That you’re not the one who gets cracked!



I cannot exist without my friends.

They’re the ones who keep me going

Through the tough times

And times have been tough.



Life is only worth living

Because things can get better.

We can find Love,

Peace, Contentment

And a two-seater Sofa!
