In A Success Driven Age
I do not dislike them and i can honestly say
That apart from the views they hold they are okay
But tis our different opinions make us interesting some are known to say
And we all look at life in a different way,
You may say that person is destined to lose
Though you have never lived in his or her shoes
But in a success driven age compassion is rare
And too few for the feelings of others do care
In a success driven age only winners seem to count
And the efforts of the unsuccessful to nothing amount
The winners as usual seem to take it all
And the gallant losers so few wish to recall
And in a success driven age with the focus on greed
Only the most ruthless are bound to succeed.

He wants to Retreat (Quatrain)
Ardent passion of going high,
Desire to touch the illusion of sky,
Tempted to earn fame and name,
Restless effort to reach the aim,
All led to a point of commitment
To earn wealth to uttermost extent,
Where, each success enhances thirst.
Thirst of advancement is the worst,
When one forgets to celebrate success,
Out of fear to miss the next chances,
Ignoring surroundings and overtaking all,
Though, he achieves his goal after all,
He is in discontentment and melancholy,
Despite his dreams fulfilled, he is wealthy.
He finds himself in a darkness of agitation,
The rivalry of growth and competition.
Within the roar of glory of success,
Receiving compliments and praises,
His peace-less surroundings remind,
His true happiness is left behind.

John Ferryman And Madeline
John Ferryman and Madeline are soul mates and where one is the other you will see
And they are two who do share similar interests and they enjoy each others company
John talkative and Madeline more laid back in that way they are different as can be
I'll never understand human behaviour how opposites can live in harmony?
They are both into money making projects and you might say that they work as a team
And John maintain they will be rich and famous he's not a man who is afraid to dream
And they feel positive about their future and they are never short on new ideas
And they are never lacking in endeavour and success is there for those who really try
They've sown the seeds of gain through their networking and the fruits of their success they will enjoy.
John Ferryman and Madeline live in Selby where the mountain ash trees seem to touch the sky
Just uphill from the track of 'Puffing Billy' they often hear the old steam train chug by
They work hard at their projects for their fortune and their hard work for them will finally pay
And they are on the brink of something greater as success from them is not that far away.

On My Worth As A Writer
On my worth as a writer I do cast great doubt
Though one could never run out of things to write about
And poetasters are many and poets they are rare
Yet so much to write on of the big World out there
One can say I've written a whole heap of stuff
Yet out of millions of writers few are good enough
To make a success out of the wordsmith trade
So many there are and so few make the grade
Not many writers the literary critics impress
And so few out of writing become a success
For every literary success of which we do read
So many are destined to never succeed
And only a tiny minority do make writing pay
But then such is life as some are known to say.
