Your life is not reduced to chores
Your agenda fills up with fun things
And it's for you when the phone rings!
Food shopping – just pick what you like
A different menu every night?
Into the small hours you can read
Indulgence - in all forms - your creed!
At first sight this life seems ideal
But loneliness is a big deal
You struggle to keep in the flow
No one's to hand when you feel low...
At weekends friends have family ties
Most lives are hectic – no surprise
Such is the pace of life today
Dear friends move on or pass away...
Phones help us to communicate
Poor substitute for loving mate
Precious links are great - but rare
Deep down we all just want to share ...
