Woe is me, near the raging sea
Waves a crashin’, onto the quay
Before nature’s power
I nervously cower
Spray falling, on my battered lee
Woe is me, near the raging sea
Waves a crashin’, onto the quay
Before nature’s power
I nervously cower
Spray falling, on my battered lee
Be it soft or deep, it’s about the hue
From sea to sky, and always new
Just climb the hill
And get your fill
Of nature’s beauty, in sumptuous blue
Snow is falling, silently and clear
Covering all, in a white veneer
Much joy and fun
As children run
Slipping and sliding, no signs of fear
Ten months later, the silence is back
The Covid demon, it will not slack
Do the right thing
That’s how we win
Work hard people, let’s beat this attack
Travel restrictions, don’t make my day
I must be creative, having only 5k
A walk on the pier
That I value so dear
Tangy air to breathe, by deep blue bay
The virus aimed, and did hardly miss
Cost a heavy price, with no hug or kiss
We will prevail
To tell the tale
Of being with loved ones, oh what bliss
Up. up and away...
Just got the news, that a good friend is sick
The virus came silently, and hit him quick
Always first to assist
He’ll fight and resist
To beat this menace, now Come on, Mick!

We were dancing in the moonlight, when the news came through
Don’t believe a word, said someone, but our mood was blue
No more boy in town
The sun goes down
Hey, turn up the music, and do anything you want to
Dedicated to Phil Lynott who sadly left us on 4th January 1986
Start of the new year, it’s a quiet day
No meetings allowed, nothing to say
My dream for now
It will be a wow
To wave to a friend, and just say ‘Hey’
