I remember that day so well.
The summit of the hill was behind us,
That hill so full of beauty and memories.
Our love had carried us up
And now it was taking us down.
We both stopped and looked,
Looked towards the valley,
The valley below us.
There it sat in all its beauty,
The multifarious greens seemed to call,
Call us into natures realm.
The greens spotted with white specks,
The specks of sheep
Grazing away in absolute calm.
That calm was all around us
As we just sat and glorified,
Glorified in the beauty of nature,
That beauty laid out before us.
That image will always be with me
Even after all the years that have passed,
We still talk of that sight,
Even in our old age.
That site that showed us nature
And the beauty that love
Brought to us,
And can bring to all.
