Now that I'm free to choose and you're

No longer ham-strung by my stubborn, crass,

And often childish whims, perhaps we can

Begin to make some sense of what we're doing.

It seems some people don't appreciate

Our offer to speak out, so we must find

The smaller groups, lunch clubs, U3As,

Men's Breakfasts, Ladies Literary Teas,

Anywhere they'll listen, and at least

We'll get to talk to somebody who cares.

But is this enough when I can see

There's so much more, out there, to be done?

             Inspire me with a hope that what I do

             Will make a difference, in the end, for you.
