Sunshine shard in the hard Night
Dastardly dreams.. bastardly schemes loom
Hark the starkness of darkness does consume
Well let’s get to the bull elephant in the room
Suffocated by the toxic fume of oligarch doom
Hounded & surrounded by the ghoulish gloom
Bombs zoom go boom mushroom clouds bloom
Don’t be Othellos tame the flame from their bellows
Sunshine and night in your head are old bedfellows
Fight for light respite from our plight blight mellows
A place of grace rhapsody of double bass and cellos
Simple ploy take joy in the coy little things life brings
Means stuff stings hug tiny treasures like spring sings
Verdant valleys measures tallies with Lord of the Rings
Mother nature’s pleasures at leisure all Queens & Kings
Serene sanctuary of what ifs and riffs of sliding doors
Don’t be pernickety or finickety believe in serendipity
Take detours explore more and floor our many flaws
When life gets gritty it’s not about having a cash kitty
Creed to heed can indeed feed on witty repartee & ditty
Go on show pity & plead you don’t need to be so shi**y
Askew I say coo and woo not just be true to thine self
Hear qu*er sneaky devil whine or revel of a cheeky elf
Like a fine wine just heave and then leave on the shelf
Knew you are the clue to accrue your own grown wealth
Find that the best quest and test for your mental health
Stars aligned unwind and your mind is well kind to itself
