SOME TIMES MORE IS GAINEDE

Some times more can be gained

By walking in to the wind

Swimming against the tides and current

Walking through the crowded

Singing the right words to a different tune

Saying the right thing at a bad time

Be the only one saying NO!

When all the others are saying YES!

Be not dressed in the latest fashions

At least ten years ago stiles prefer to wear

Shoes , trainers under a tenner*

Hair as short as long as what pleases you

Music heavy metal , folk , Mozart , rock et al

Music populer of 50 , 60 , 70 , years ago

As you like music to be to you , let it be

Read , what ever you chose to read

Those who snigger , then as us Brits fondly say

STUFF ' EM!

JUST BE YOU ALWAYS BE YOU!

"To thine own self be true." I especially like "singing the right words to a different tune" . . . I often find myself doing just the opposite, singing different words to the right tune. There's some song that gets in your head and keeps bouncing around, you know all the music but not all the words and so make up some as you go along, and the song is part what it was and part what you make it.

Ooo I love this, too groovy!! "Sometimes more to be gained, By walking in the wind, Swimming against the tides and current" AYE! Love the freedom of this write, the freedom to express and truly be one's self and to stand up for what is right, even when it's not popular. Splendid write, I adore this. Too wonderful!!
