You'Re the One At the Wheel

Happy days are here once again All is right with the world We sometimes wander a bit off course But find our way back unnerved It's all part of this loving existence That confronts us every day Must remember to get back on the track When our heads are led astray Life too short, shouldn't waste a day In the overall scheme of things Really don't have all that many I'm afraid Say howdy and let your heart sing Hey youse guys! I can hear you saying Is this loony toon for real It's all about how you approach the day You're the one at the wheel © Jack Ellison 2014

I'm in total agreement with you. We are the ones at the wheel. We might find bumpy or winding roads, but a good driver should be able to cope with them:) drive on Jack...honk honk :) // paul

Some times it's more difficult than others to be positive in this cray world! But we MUST stay positive!!! You, my friend, seem to understand! Cheers from Canada!

Ah... Dragon put me at the wheel for a poem about Dragon Hood, Lord Jack Ellison... and especially inspired by Lady Cathie Ellison... Yep! You're in it! Come read it before I keel over with all the excitement... Or with Dragon's jumping up and down! He can kinda forget we humans are so fragile... Silly Dragon!
