DRIFT AWAY

BY FIONA CUMMINGS

Drift away

On a boat made for two

Making memories long overdue

It’s a beautiful day

With a wonderful view

A basket of treats

We will stop and eat

Near the lily’s and long grass

With its bluebell path

Racing with the ducks and swans

This is where we belong

Life couldn’t be better

Passing the purple heather

And birds singing their song

We need to find more time together

Life rushes by

And get’s in the way of living

Let’s make a promise and try

No matter what the weather

To take time out for us

No need to fuss

I could be in an empty room without a view

As long as I’m with you

This old boat has been in our family for years

Seen laughter and tears

Hugged and protected us from fears

Introduced us to the elements

Taught us what is relevant

Time out for two

Just me and you

Under the sky so blue
