Leave all worries behind. Repose in my caress And gently close your eyes. Be peaceful like a dove. Sleep now, until sunrise. Leave all worries behind And come away with me - Far from the maddening crowd - To our private haven; Our hearts be mighty proud. Leave all worries behind. Let's turn our backs on time. Shangri-La awaits us; So beautiful, so rich It's worth a billion plus! Leave all worries behind. Let's roam with abandon In the verdure of dreams Where butterflies tarry And float above the streams.

Congratulations on your win Edward. All of life is a choice to either wallow in worry or leave it behind. You emphasize this so beautifully with the contrasting phrases. Way to go! Blessings of peace and serenity to you!
