Title ŠYear ...Even Shakespeare had to start somewhere...

Life Cycle 1982 'Don't be disillusioned / Time passes by / Leaving us far behind'

This is it (Well I think so...) 1981 'Then after she said he'd turned round / and told her what he thought...'

A Beatle Letter 1981 Figure this one out for yourself!

The Portrait 1980 'She stays ever young with the passing of years / And as I grow older her eyes fill with tears'

Times And Tides 1978 'Did the sky soon become / Such a prize to be won / That you had to destroy to agree?'

The Final Witness 1978 'Will I see an arc of sunlight in a rhythmic flashing sky? / Will I see old friendly faces crumple, wither by and by?

Circle Round the Sun 1977 'Realize the one who weeps / Watching over human tears'

My very first attempt 1976 Don't laugh... I was only 18!
