Love On A Lazy Summer's Day

• The meadow looks so beautiful this morning
• The river just ambles on by
• Barges and boats leave their moorings
• Not caring where they are going or why.
• 
  
• The couple on deck are waving
• Encouraging the artist in me
• I carry on with my engraving
• Carving a heart in the bark of a tree.
• 
  
• The riverbank dotted with primrose
• Buttercup and purple flowering sage
• Honeysuckle grows in the hedgerows
• Surely this must be true loves stage.
• 
  
• A skylark hovers over the meadow
• In the bushes the yellow hammers sing
• I watch intently as the swallow
• Catches her prey on the wing.
• 
  
• Mother nature is displaying her beauty
• Her wisdom, her magic, her charm
• One day you will share this with me
• When I'm holding you in my arms.
• 
  
• Please my Lord hurry the day
• My love and I have been so long apart
• Help me Lord to find the way
• To the girl who holds my heart.
