---------------------------------------------------------------------------1:
MERRY ENGLAND LIVES JUST SOUTH OF NOTTINGHILL,
IN DAILY DREAMS OF SHAKESPEARE LIKE SOME PISCES WILL.
THOUGH SHE'S NEVER BEEN BEYOND THE LADBROKE GATE,
THE WORLD HAS SPUN AROUND THERE MANY TIMES OF LATE.
CAN CAROLINE REMEMBER, HE THAT DID BEFRIEND HER,
AND SCARCELY TOUCHED THE BEAUTY, OF A SADNESS ON HER SOUL.
SO SUBTLE WERE HER CHANGES, NO ONE EVEN NOTICED,
THAT MANY YEARS OF CRYING AND SHE BARELY LET IT SHOW.
THAT'S THE PRICE YOU HAVE TO PAY TO GROW SO OLD.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------2:
ENGLAND'S TURNING GREEN FROM ALL THOSE YEARS OF RAIN,
LIKE MOSS ALONG THE FENCES DOWN OL' MEMORY LANE.
POETRY IN MOTION WHILE SHE STANDS THERE STILL,
SOME MAIDEN IN A CASTLE UP ON NOTTING-HILL.
I DREA-M OF ENGLAND AND HER AU - BURN HAIR, AND I MISS CA-RO- LINE.
Have fun, DAIRYBEAT on:
