An animal is Something that kills without reason Something that attacks without warning Something that is ether alone or in packs Something that attacks those that aren’t like them Humans are Animals

Animals
A laugh on a warm day A well played tennis game A simple tulip flower Brings a smile in the darkest hour A tower of strength A battle fought so gracefully A sentence said in final clarity Keeps you ever dear to me A stretch of beach A life lesson A memory that's always near Of A special Mother who's always there

A Special Mother
Sons and daughters of New Zealand Soil Buried far away in strange lands We stand here at dawn on this day In the towns where you grew up but never grew old To remember you and your sacrifice You did not grow old so we could

Anzac Day
An old man sits in his Reclining chair Silent and still as a windless day He looks out the window To a time and a land far away He remembers the constant state of fear He remembers the death that was there Letters from a sweetheart in a foreign language That laid strewn across the ground After he killed a young man that looked just like him His screams and cries keep him awake sometimes He remembers his mates Jim and Jack Who never made it back He still can’t talk about the hit Jim took Jack they couldn’t find all the pieces They say he was lucky he came back unscathed Or did he?

Not All Wounds Bleed
- This small line is what defines your life It knows nothing about social boundaries It does not care about your race Whether you were gay or straight. Whether your life was happy or sad Whether you were good or bad It’s the dash between life and death       <3 This is what defines your memory It’s the kind word you said The smile you gave The help given when you were tired The advice you gave or the shoulder to cry on The heart you gave to others It’s the place you hold in another’s heart

The Dash or The Heart?
The poor man wants the mansion The rich man wants a shack The poor man wants a princess The rich man just wants a girl The poor man wants to be a rich man The rich man wants to be poor

Hello My Old Friend
When you left me mum my old world came to an end there is darkness in this new world the sunshine that was you is gone a world without your laughter is cold Your smile a beacon extinguished my footsteps are unsure in this dark new world

Dark New World
Little Johnny took his life last night because him and his girlfriend got into a fight. She said I want us to be over and he found solace at the end of a revolver. Now she’s crying by his coffin saying she still loves him. Things would have been ok in a day or two if they had of talked like adults   do. All the adults will say he had his whole life ahead of him. Young Chloe reads her last text then takes a hand full of pills. Her so called friends that sit there at the cemetery say that wasn’t the intent of calling her a pig in her prom dress. Never mind about the thousands of messages they’ve sent before telling young Chloe she’s a ***** All the adults will say she had her whole life ahead of her. Young Jim got this Skyline for his birthday he’s been driving for a year or so. He thinks it’s awesome doing skids. till he looses control and hits the pole that was hid. His friends that sit in the little church that cheered him on say it was all over in a sec man what a wreck. All the adults will say is he had his whole life ahead of him.

They Had Their Whole Lives Ahead
Regrets are gambles you’ve taken that didn’t pay off. I’ve gambled a lot in life and lost. I put my chips on money instead of love. I’ve got the cash and she walked off. I once took a hand of selfishness over a hand of time with a loving mother. Now I’ve laid that loving mother to rest. Regrets are gambles that didn’t pay off but don’t go bust on love
