I have change dthe messsage here after reading and realising i sounded as if l was leaving here for good. Nope! Sorry about that! L am going away for a while to study and there is no email link or computers so l wanted to say goodbye to my friends for a


If l cannot write

If l cannot write then why should l stay?,
watch as my dreams here all fade away.
There are other places to go and see,
if you know want me thats where l will be.

In verse and song l have tried to involve you,
and my spirit for you has always been true.
But those who deem us to be just another face,
have made it easier to be in another place.

For if l could join then l would have done,
but my life is elsewhere and a new chapter has begun.
But my love for you all has made my task not so glad,
and now l leave feeling so lost and very sad.

But l will always be a supporter if only in heart and soul,
and maybe one when l can i will refit that supporters role.
And so now l must leave and wish you all a final fare thee well,
who knows when l shall return, only time and fate will tell.

But you my friends l shall miss so much, remember me in love.

oh Colin I am so sad that you are leaving. I always look for your poetry and am excited when i see you have written something. This is a sad day for me. Your heart is one of the most dear and sincere hearts I have had the privelege of meeting through poetry. I shall miss you and pray you will return when you are able. xxx kathy
