You Help Me See Things
you help me see things
things i thought i were lost
or perhaps forgot
or put away in life’s great loft
you help me walk on the sea wall
balance, without suffering a fall
i know, i should play ball
and grasp this game
principles, they can be such a strain
and principles can be such a cage
you help me and perhaps
i could do with some help
even some love and affection
i feel every point of future direction
James Garratt – June 2011
