Poppy Seeds

Neville

Poppy Seeds

 

I was really

Doing nothing then she was there

Walking by my side wild flowers in her hair

 

I told her of

The lives I’ve led of yesterdays that

Made her laugh and tales of a paradise that was

 

She told me of a land of dreams

Of a kingdom built on poppy seeds 

Where it never rains and the flowers never die

 

Somewhere 

Way above the clouds 

And maybe just a little to the right

      A dream of a meeting with love lost and remembered - - - such a thing can happen when we walk amid poppy fields but no-one puts it better than thee...........

        If my memory serves me correctly, this was one of those chance encounters when the notebook & pen came in handy... Bless you dear Fay ..............
