My Enthusiasm
I want to run a marathon,
A mountain want to climb,
I want to be a pilot,
Write a book in record time.
I want to act on Broadway,
And at golf beat Tiger Woods,
Complete a sail around the world,
Design some special puds.
I want to be on radio,
Present a morning show,
I want to sit in Parliament,
In space I want to go.
I want to drive a tube train,
A cup final goal to score,
I want to be a stand up,
And I want to win a war.
I want to found a charity,
I want to write a book,
I want to play ice hockey,
And with glee I’d hit the puck.
I want to re-design a house,
I want a number one,
Enthusiasm still as strong,
Until the chance is gone.
I am enthusiastic,
And succeed perhaps I might,
But what I’m most enthusiastic,
For, is just to write!
