You, Me and My Dog .. and Blame It on Saint Marlo

You, Me and My Dog

 

If I could be

   somewhere else today ..

Then I would

chose to be anywhere

   in Somerset ..

Just as long as you were

right there,

   beside me and my dog ..

 

 

Blame It on Saint Malo

 

Saint Malo, is where

   I found truth ..

But where I also left

my innocence

   and indeed my youth ..

So long ago

   and very far behind me ..

Yet now tho’

in particular, I do recall

her fingers

like a harpist or some

young croupiers

so long, so slender, quick

   and very cool ..
