Friendship is being there for each other
Rally round to help one another
Include them in things that you do
Encourage each other along the way
nurture and care 
Delighted faces
Sharing things with them from day to day
Happy days ahead
Incredible memories
Peaceful hearts...

Where would I be, 
Without loyalty, 
From the people I hold so dear,

Don't know how I'd get by,
Not a word of a lie, 
They take away all of my fear,

When the dark clouds surround, 
They all rally round, 
Slowly the mist starts to clear,

I'm the luckiest yet, 
To be in this set,  
My friends, to you I do cheer.

Thank you...

Arrives,
spring in green hues.
Buds and blooms opening.
The crocuses are in full bloom,
violet and pink amid slender leaves.
Bees rally round and songbirds chirp,
flying from tree to tree.
Season of cheer,
Arrives!

The day wisdom flies the coup,
Is the day we will need to rally round hope,
And hang on tight to love with more than just rope.

Who could blame wisdom  if it decided to fly the coup,
When we don't bother to keep it in the loop,
As even lower we stoop.

I pray we can restore wisdom to the top of the heap,
Before it flies the coup,
With few in the group that can entice it back through the hoop....

COPLA CINCUENTA Y CINCO: This Bad Guy World

Centre-half’s the heart of defence
Danger comes from the Right and Left:
Ball politics

When heart’s corrupt fickle sans sense
Enemy dribbles through with zest:
Goal posts drumsticks

The second line’s the general
Prince and people rally round him:
Alert spearhead

Goal keeper pulls skin over all
Defence cataracts make him victim:
Balls bounce dead ahead

Forgiveness is easy
So i choose not to
I forsake myself
so why should i treat you any differently
Are you special
Chosen from on high
Standing here my finger raised towards the sky
Forgive and forget
A joke forced down our throats
Rally round and crucify me
From your sins i wont set you free
Is there life beyond this farce
Does the universe question is there human life
Forgiveness is humanities strife
So take your sorrys
To some other ear
because foregiveness has no home here...
