Chesnuts And Red Wine.

kevin browne

Wait today until tomorrow morning
With the sun in your eye drop tears
And when all the birds start chirping
Deep blue skies with clouds of fears.

Beautiful glory grows in the garden
Whilst Bumblebees lick their nectar
Butterflies pass as they beg to pardon
And the sweet ladybird, let's hold her.

Summers gone and winter dries cold
When brown leaves rustle up towards
Ageing oak trees line up and grow old
Branches poking all the way upwards.

Wheatfields and Barley swayback up
Slow-worms underneath compost heap
Slugs slide along with their magic touch
Cats prowl the night hoping mice to meet.

Snowflakes fall from afar atop the skies
And as winter turns reluctantly to spring
For above the love that snowman cries
As owl flies the skies like a long lost king.

And as Christmas is now jeering up to go
Chestnuts and red wine flows out plenty
And whilst children open up glorious gifts
As a love of living people brings it on gently.

Now autumn winds and rain clear up snow
Dogs barking on a morning of playful charm
And foxes snidely snake up on a blind mole
The clock ticking as it begins to wake alarm.

Cold feet in the morning and remember
Blistering weather beats down on a face
Still, a fire glows from 25th of December
And England with its beauty and its grace.

Snowdrops disappeared beyond to rest
And daffodils feel like a yellowing willow
As birds are out trying to show who's best
Robins chirp loud now for it's time to rest.

New arrival of a brand new sunny day
As green trees again brighten the same
Whilst kids put on their sandals to play
And now that nature starts to grow again.

We put on wellies and feed the cows
We put on our smiles and take all on
For another Winter when life grows
When you know another year has gone.
