What Ails Poor Greece* Can Trail Us Too...........

Trojan Prince Hector in the Movie , Troy
Actor - Eric Bana**

Greece dear, is in pain I hear
History of whose, all have heard


Of great statesmen,  of brave warriors
Of  past glory, of Trojan Prince Hector


Though over time, we all in a race
Yet we failed, to keep up the pace


Sorrow of one, is the wound of all
If not, we all are sure to fall


Sad is the day, when kids do stray
Sadder it is, when it's parents way


Think of the peace and of the joy
When homes are filled with boys and toys


Think of the wretchedness 
When homes are in a mess


But for few, who shared their wealth
Many can sleep now, in their beds


Time is now, for us to awake 
Time not now, to hunt for cake


Time to give and time to share
Time to remember, that '12*** can tear


Make peace with all, on this earth
Nothing else, is of much worth


Greece we love you, really we do
Soon you will be, decked anew


This too will pass, we all have heard
I stop here now, with these few words

An after thought.............for you I've got
                           
                              Adieu, Adieu

Time flew, but memories grew

Moments spent, though soul repents

Heart still aches, and mind not wakes

Life a dream, got to wake up 'morrow....................
