IF I HAD MONEY TO BURN

If I had money to burn
I would never find out
How to turn

180°
To follow the way
That appears

Out of the sight of my friends
Who may think it leads
To blind ends

And yet I’m here
Without a tear
Without a fear
Let’s make it clear
That’s what I say
I’m on the way
That won’t delay
A single day

If I had something to prove
I would never find out
How to move

Towards the goals that may seem
As far way too naïve
To be foreseen

And yet I’m here
Without a tear
Without a fear
Let’s make it clear
That’s what I say
I’m on the way
That won’t delay
A single day


(Richard Durana)
