In my dreams

I’ve been there often

I know the drive so well

A road lined with blossom

Horses in a green meadow

Flicking flies in the sun

​

Spaniels laze on the grass

A veranda, shady, secluded

A table of woven straw

A bottle of wine from the South

Lawn curtains billow softly

At every breeze which passes

Old men talk of old wars

In places no one recalls

By the lake

Sounds of children laughing

But I’ll never go there at all.
