As you go through life
Looking at people
What do you imagine
That they imagine?
Do you look at some
And think that nothing
Will come from them?
Do you look at others
With great expectations?
Sometimes you are surprised,
As those of whom you imagine
That nothing will come from,
Will do the things,
That nobody could imagine.

Good write Gold. That quote sounds like 'Tomorrow is the yesterday you worried about next year' - or summat like that! I always get it wrong of course. lol.
Thanks Orchi.
Truth in poetic words. We know so little of what people are capable and a book should never be judged by its cover. Good advice Andy
Much appreciated soren, thank you.

A lesson in the inadvisability of early presumptions, Andy. Hope those needing that advice take it to heart.
