Remember that I will be writing your poem from scratch -- around the themes you want to express.

This is a photo of my favourite place in the world, the Little Bay Chapel.
The Little Bay Chapel is a five-minute walk from my home, just a 20-minute drive from downtown Sydney.
A blessing for us
​
I just know there are reasons for all that we do . . .
For all whom we meet, and all that we rue
So, the universe has brought me a gift in yourself
Tonight, I’ll toast to you and drink to our health.
So, lift your glass, and toast the moment.
That’s all that there is, no need for torment.
About pasts that can't change, about futures that don’t exist
About flaws, about jealousies, about the pain that persists.
Thank God for our humanness, and thank God for this life.
Thank God for this music which seems so rife.
It teaches us of love, of tenderness, and care,
Of friendship, of honour, of giving beyond compare.
God grant us the serenity, God grant us the love
And steer us towards Heaven, which need not exist above.
Show us the way to Heaven here on Earth,
I trust Your guidance, and I honour Our worth.
Written on the eve of the Olympic Games Opening Ceremony -- 15 September 2000. The passion was pumping through after four years of directing the operational planning for the Olympics and Paralympics 1996-2000.
