"Pleeaze! Tell me you won't take a chance!" is an anecdotal account based on the multifarious events and incidents the author, Nick Crozby, has enjoyed and experienced from before the Second World War through to the present day. It focuses especially on the role that chance can play throughout life and the way chance can shape and affect events, love and career opportunities and expectations; if chances are taken! Working on the principle instilled in him in his early days by his family that "you make your own luck" Nick tried throughout his life to grasp each opportunity with open arms although some unfortunate chance situations did lead to considerable strain, stress and frustration. "Pleeaze! Tell me you won't take a chance!" relates these life happenings giving an intimate slant and putting them into a social and historical context and circumstance. It illustrates clearly the effects that changes in society, morals and standards can have on the life of the individual as well as society as a whole.

This is a collection of my lifes experiences, events and occurrences that I have taken and put into poetic theory. These are private thoughts, feelings, and expressions of love, life and relationships as well as a few other things that I am passionate about. Nothing about this work of art is fictional or made up. I thought that maybe if I could share some of my experiences with the world, maybe someone can be helped, maybe I can ease someone elses pain, pass on the healing in word. My sincerest wish is that my Poetry touches the heart, soul and mind, that it inspires love and healing for someones heart and soul. That it teaches us that life is so very short and that love is the most precious gift that one can bestow on another. When you find love and its real, keep it, nurture it, be honest with it, treasure it and above all else place God first in it. Never let anyone interfere in what is only for you. People say that you cannot find your true love when you are a child, a teenager, because after all what could we possibly know about love at that age, but I am living, breathing proof that this is not true. I found my true love at 18 years of age, he knows who he is (Moe).Thank you so much for showing me what real love feels like, what it should be. I am so sorry that I was not mature enough, was too nave to handle it. You will always, always be the love of my life. And you will always be missed. These poems are reflections of experiences that I have had with individuals that have come into my life, whether for a moment, a season, or just to teach me a life lesson, you all have inspired me in some way, shape or form, but you shall remain nameless, if you ever get the chance to read this work, you would be able to tell who you are, and how you have helped me whether it was in a positive or negative fashion. You have all helped me to grow in some way, and I strongly believe that what does not kill you makes you stronger. Thank you all.
