Take a Leap of Faith


Today’s a leap day, the 29th of February
Only comes round every four years
It’s an extra day, a give away day
So surely it’s something to cheer

To celebrate and make the most of
To mark with a special occasion
It’s an extra day, a give away day
So come on and make a decision

Plan what to do, have something to say
Make a commitment to your future
It’s an extra day, a give away day
Believe you can do something super

Perhaps this is the day to make the choice
To take that leap of faith
It’s an extra day, a give away day
Say yes and stop being a slave

A give away day - I like that description. I certainly gave mine away, hardly did a thing. Oh well.

Love the idea of this - and I love the 'extra day, a give away day'. 29th February is a bonus! Hope we all made the most of it!
Nice piece.
