I see you skating round and round,
life's same problems getting you down.

I want to take you far from here,
Let's go outside we'll skate elsewhere.

Take my hand we'll leave this rat race,
I'll lead you somewhere that is someplace.

Break away from your endless circle,
It's wearing you out and your getting nowhere.

Douglas~

Wonderful poem.  What a good feeling it is to be able to skate away from the world and all its problems...

"Even a fool knows you can't touch the stars, but it doesn't stop a wise man from trying."
Harry Anderson, "Night Court"

*Cassandra Roseen*
