The Chair

Crows squabbling Upon chimney tops

After a day in someone’s bin

I hear birds sing their song in trees

In this chair that I’m sat in

 

Wood pigeons whooping

Sky is red.... the clouds are wearing thin

How peaceful it’s become tonight

In this chair that I’m sat in.

 

The sound of a bicycles rattling chain,

tinkles down the lane

His lights come on as darkness falls

In this chair that I’m sat in

 

Stars come out across the sky

The moon is sat within

Only darkness fills the sky tonight

In this chair that I’m sat in

 

I think that I shall stay a while

And finish off the Gin

As the warm south air blows silent

In this chair that I’m sat in
