Time stands still for no-one,
I stop and watch it’s true!
I wouldn’t wait for things to happen,
I’d make them happen, if I was you!

Friendship’s come and friendships go,
But precious is what they are!
You may not even realise,
Until they’re just a memory of the heart.

Do not take for granted,
What you have right now.
The tide of change is shifting,
And the tide is moving out.

I wish I had this warning
Many years ago.
Perhaps the pain of ignorance
‘’Would not even show,

Take heed and listen, friend
What I offer is good advice.
Time stands still for no-one,
And this one is your life!

Steve Collins 15/6/10

I had this funny dream,
It’s the strangest one I’ve ever had.
In this dream I could do just what I like,
So, up I  floated like a funny kite.

And as I looked at the houses down below,
They looked like little mushrooms;
With an orange – yellow glow.

Well, by now I was so very high,
It made me feel quite ill.
I lost my concentration,
Which made me start to fall ....

Faster, faster like a falling brick,
I saw the ground come rushing up
It made me feel quite sick.

And, as I was about,
To hit the ground below;
A voice inside my head
Yelled ‘NO’.

I woke up feeling hot and cold,
And sat up in my bed.
‘Cause I remember people saying....

If you ever hit the ground when falling,
You’ll always end up dead!
