Book Extract GLAD AND SAD Winter comes, we are sad Summer here we are glad Raindrops on our face The sun within your heart Go with the flow, at your pace Stick with nature, don't grow apart Butterflies, they come and go Buds flower, they have made a start Birds duck and dive in the skies Bees and wasps fly around the flowers Pollinating and feeding all day It comes and goes, glad and sad Sit down; relax in sun's warm rays Imagine the sun is all around for days No winter in your heart. GO WITH THE FLOW It came upon me in a different way, It ripped my guts away Damage done, for all to see, So powerful, fearful, just not me. Perhaps next time I'll kill No way - not on - time to change It caught me out, no time to run, But my memory stays intact. To recall, Assess and plan defeat Return the compliment that's what I'll do Surprise, Change tack, beat the bum, Fight, keep on, it'll soon come. Albeit a different way. Boundaries 'amust, to save defeat Others must guide me though. If we are to gain our goal In cotton wool I'll win the war, Is that a lot to ask? Prove myself, no need for me An open book I feel. Slow down, take nothing on
