Poetry by Jennifer Olston

If you must pace To save face Think of this, Your life needs a twist. Think you are the only one w ith a problem? Think again, look all around. As of late, all you do is save face, To keep up with the pace. Keeping up with the pace to  save face Gives you an ego high, Burying who you really are deep inside. Your life is the future Holding grudges Makes you a looser Come on then Be the best you can See, see Feel free All together now You and me All together now Clap your hands And aim high See, see Feel free All together now You and me All together now Let us aim high Let go of the pain Feel good deep inside.  

Under the stars The future was bright. The moon was full, Of bright shining light! With a full mast, sailing ahead The canal was deep, It felt like heaven! More to the left, A tad to the right Navigating the ship, Was pure delight! It was like heaven on earth The more you do, The bigger the thirst! Man-O Man-O Man the ship Land Ho! That’s because it’s heaven on earth. The more you do, The bigger the thirst! Man-O Man-O Man the ship Land Ho! Heaven on earth! Heaven on earth! The more you do, The bigger the thirst!
