Left out a 't' apologies for any pain and distress caused P
GOOD INTENTIONS
he woke up
with the dawn chorus
rising of the sun
in the calm after the storm
he decided bravely
with good intentions
that there was
no time like the present
take the plunge
put his best foot forward
get things in apple pie order
shoulder to the wheel
turn a new leaf
face trials and tribulations
at this point in time
put his nose to the grindstone
remember the Alamo
take the bull by the horns
use traditional family values
keep the wolf from the door
go the whole hog
have his moment of glory
set the record straight
still waters run deep
start from scratch
win friends and affluence
work like a dog
but it soon turned
into his worst nightmare
a bull in a china shop
as luck would have it
suddenly it was raining
cats and dogs
he had got out of
the wrong side of the bed
had to turn
his face to the wall
his road paved to hell
scared to death
his senses reeling
pressed his panic button
he realised
it was the same old story
that it was all just
the stuff that
dreams were made of
in the final analysis
to err is human
not to beat about the bush
but inexorably drawn
down in the dumps
he threw in the towel
received the kiss of death
then was it was all
dead as a doornail
let sleeping dogs lie
nipped in the bud
no guts no glory
but it was just a
simple twist of fate
his bell tolled
and tolled
