Come, have a drink with me –
Care can swallow love,
And tasks devour time
Enough of cups of tea!
Your eyes, ever more sublime,
Dancing bright above
A brown and friendly beer
Will soon meet mine, my dear
Intoxicatingly.
I feel magnificent – sixteen without the angst!
It’s something to do with just had a kiss from you –
Thrown off me dolour...
Your garden – I can hardly see
Under this glooming summer – dusk sky
The stalwart gnomes peer out at me...
