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.
The kids weren’t there; the sun walled up with cloud
What wan Sunday noon we walked from church into!
Our walls seemed wet...
Summer’s hiding over there –
Behind the hill, but in your eyes
I see the summer’s dreamy skies...
