ONE SECRET TO A HAPPY LIFE # 2
One secret to a happy life
Is this and nothing more
Once a year, go somewhere
You’ve never been before.
DISABILITY SPORT
They may well be considered
In life to have a Vulnerability
But where sport is concerned
They have no such disability
So calling it “Disability Sport”
Couldn’t be more misleading
When the limits they are given
They are constantly exceeding
Don’t look at them as disabled
But as sportsmen and women
Because in the arena of sport its
As athletes you should define them
LIEUTENANT GENERAL SIR LESLIE JAMES MORSHEAD KCB, KBE, CMG, DSO, ED (18 September 1889 – 26 September 1959)
Australian schoolmaster
Of Cornish stock
Turned reluctant soldier to be
A veteran of the Great War,
Galipoli, Messines, Passchendaele,
Villers-Bretonneux, and Amiens.
After the armistice he was
A peace time businessman
Remaining active in part-time Militia.
Until the Second World War,
When he led the Australian and British troops
At the Siege of Tobruk
And at the Second Battle of El Alamein,
Achieving decisive victories
Over Rommel's Afrika Korps
A strict and demanding officer,
His soldiers affectionately nicknamed him
“Ming the Merciless”,
Later simply “Ming”
After Flash Gordon’s nemesis
He was a remarkable leader
When ordered to hold Tobruk
For 8 weeks and held for 7 months
And it is widely regarded to be the point
That Britain won the war
ONCE IN AN AGE OF INNOCENCE
Once in an age of innocence
When the maids were chaste
The body was a temple of love
On which great value was placed
Now the age of innocence is dead
Virtue is sacrificed in haste
Bodies are desecrated at will
And displayed without disgrace
AN ARTIST SHOULD BE ADMIRED
An artist should be admired
Treasured and inspired
And encouraged to create
Art to which we can relate
WE ALL MAKE MISTAKES IN LIFE
We all make mistakes in life
But the first step is to admit it
When you realize you've made one
Take immediate steps to correct it
One secret to a happy life
Is this and nothing more
Once a year, go somewhere
You’ve never been before.
