Louis' poem for a loving weekend...

[JohnnyBoy]

Hi,

Here's one for all you marrieds, partners, lovers out there. Make it a happy weekend, get the wine poured and enjoy together this one...


Do not go.

Do not go when spring is here,
and the greens buds freshening
fields of grass and rye.
The air cool for walks together
in the trees.

Do not go when summer enters
and the crickets chirruping
to the golden corn.
The lake is cool for swimming,
You and I.

Do not go if autumn winds
play catch with leaves,
all gold and fire.
A bench for sharing the fading sunset,
till stars appear.

Do not go as winter covers earth
in snow and ice hangs from the oak.
Remain under the duvet for love,
and Madeleines with tea.
