Featured Poem







Co-operation



Poet: J. Mason Knox







It ain't the guns nor amament,



Nor funds that they can pay,



But the close co-operation,



That makes them win the day.







It ain't the individual,



Nor the army as a whole,



But the everlasting teamwork



of every bloomin' soul.

Here Is A Wish

by John McLeod, (c) 1989

Here is a wish that says:
'Warm, happy hours be yours,
Shadows are of passing note
But healing laughter cures.'
Be, therefore, ever joyful Friend,
And walk on gladsome feet
Towards tomorrow's brand new dawn
And promise sweet!

John wrote this poem for his sister and his friends.  It is a wish that he hoped would be one that they would all appreciate. While the poetry is short it contain verses that can inspire.  A good saying from this poetry is "warm happy hours be yours". Sometimes short inspirational sayings  and poems can contain more wisdom than those that go on and on. We hope you have enjoyed this one!
