    Never Too Late

    2022

    It’s never too dark to light with a spark
    The blackness of night as colours flash bright
    To flame in the gloom and leave a good mark
    There’s always a gleam of hope left in sight
    It’s never too dark, not ever too dark

    It’s never too bold to break from the mould
    Of habits and rules, of nations and schools
    To rewrite the plot of tales we’ve been told
    There’s always a magus dressed as a fool
    It’s never too bold , not ever too bold

    It’s never too soon to shoot for the moon
    With visions and schemes, with rockets and dreams
    To wish on a star, go bust and then boom
    There’s always a chance to catch the sunbeams
    It’s never too soon, not ever too soon

    It’s never too high to reach for the sky
    With ladders to climb, one step at a time
    To strive without rest, to fail and retry
    There’s always a rhythm, always a rhyme
    It’s never too high, not ever to high

    It’s never too late to regenerate
    Our land and our seas, the fish and the trees
    To rewild the earth and change the world’s fate
    There’s always new life buzz-buzzing like bees
    It’s never too late, not ever too late
