The seeds of my country

I live with a dream
I cannot live without
I live with my home
No answer for get out
I travel abroad
And live alone again
The only difference that I know
Is hypocrisy has gone
I feel a pressure after time
And willingly come home
But never do I say
I never more will roam
In a year I've had enough
Of stupid working days
Where the time and not the effort
Are the way the force gets laid
So the car gets petrol
Unprepared I go
And the seeds of my country
In another country blow

Dave, I love the spirit of freedom in this one, so dynamically expressed.

You can never detach from your roots, they accompany us wherever we go and we surely leave something wherever we stop.

Love, Margherita

Thanks Froggy.

One of the classics of police detection is that they know the smell of fish and chips will usually bring an English Criminal home.

No high tech - just open up a bad fish and chip shop, where they live.

A lot of this stuff was but it doesn't appeal to many.

Maybe as others feel they can harden their attitudes so we all retreat into Ghenhis Khan the barbarian.

Thanks Eric

It appears I never learnt how to be nice when people yet again pay for lying politicians.
