When I was 3 years old and my brothers were 4 & 5 we made some rules for fighting.

No biting,nipping or scratchinga

All these involve damaging the boundary of the skin.

If children can make rules like this, cannot Nations?

See the pansies all have little eyes.

Looking at us with complete surprise

Their velvet petals soft as mother’s womb.

Lay some gently on her now entombed

We all need better pastimes like we need tol good friends.

What to do on Sunday when the gloom descends.

What to at weekends what do at night

Get a little pussy as long as it won’t bite

Take a boxing lesson but don’t get in a fight

Read the Hebrew Bible ,hear the still still small voice

See the possibilities you always have a choice

We cast down lilies in the road.

It’s to us a well known code

We think the. Bread of Heaven’s come

Hitler eats it crumb by çrumb

Flowers by nature so designed

Appeal to both the heart and mind

First perceive and then dwell on

Beauty truth and hence reason

Astounded by the gentleness of flowers

Coloured angels help us through the hours

Nature is not minimal but lush.

Hush my baby,Hush my baby hush.

A Man from Mars would love the flowers so lush

The rambling rose the roses in a bush.

Delphiniums,foxgloves,herbs to make men blush

See the baby blackbird and the thrush.

I hear now they have kicked Love down the road.

They won’t pay the price, the cock has crowed

The government kicked the can across the road

Destroyed the home of Alfred my pet toad.

If only Alfred lived inside the house .

Never would he suffer such a bounce.

Alas he speaks no English though he’s bright.

I don’t know yet if adult toads can bite

Paradoxically, allowing yourself to be unhappy will make you happy.
