Keep it Simple

Keep it simple

Keep it clear

To the point

You must adhere

From your path

You must not stray

But stay focussed

All the way

If these words

You will but heed

In your quest

You will succeed

This one could have come from something like Lord of the rings couldn't it ? unfortunately some of the stuff I do doesn't travel too well and can be difficult to read, unless you know how I speak. My English teacher used to say "if you get the tune right, everything else will follow" which I take to mean, find the words that fit the tune, but not always, eh John

John

Simple message, simply stated, and if people were to follow it, things could be much more simple. Good food for thought, and most certainly true. Really coming to like your work, man. ~Jess K. ---------------------------------------------------- - this is part of the reason why us Americans are pissed! http://www.neopoet.com/node/14993 We're broke!!
