Ireland is like a Sinking Ship
Very slowly – Ireland is sinking
With all the cutbacks – more on the way
Soon Ireland will be gone
Gone – where do you ask?
At the bottom of the sea
Will it ever come back?
That I do wonder about!

Don’t Lost Heart
We may be having tough times
Spirits of the people may be harmed
But do not lost heart during this
It’s hard to keep positive
With so much negative around
All people have is their faith
Please do not let it break you
Or take your heart & soul

Each person has a journey
A journey that take many footsteps
And it could lead anywhere
For a person – that journey could be a struggle
But they take it one day at a time
A journey is all about footsteps!
To that first step as a child – to the last
At the end of the day
Go on that journey of yours
But take your journey in footsteps!

All Hope is Gone
Use to be so positive
Now nothing but negative
With so little to live on
It’s all about severely
How did I get so negative?
& feel so very angry
I get so down at times
Just feel like giving up
No matter whom I talk to
No matter how much I write
Those feelings won’t go away
Just hope things will improve
