I've been chasing down my dreams
Looking at places that I've been
When there's nowhere else to find
Gentle moments left behind us
We may seek some solitude
In those moments we exclude
Angry voices that may contrive
To upset our busy lives
So we can put them all away
Like the games we used to play
There is nothing more secure
Finding peace when we're so sure
That we can face another day
By putting all our cares away
And stand defiant against the worst
Show we will always be the first
To show such fortitude
With our forward attitude
We'll defend right to the last
And mend the weakest link so fast

well done my friend. catches the thoughts of a true mind in remission from days gone and still to come. Yes, facing up to our new days with strength and gile to carry on regardless of what comes before us is a great way to live. I like this, Thank you for entering.
