This Haven

This Haven

Feel and see the peaceful, ceaseless mizzle

Lending a soft grey haze to the green.

Walk the winding path with lining briars

Throw a lonely stone back to the stream.

Feel this misty air on reddening cheeks

Smell wildflowers; dream honeysuckle dreams.

I will show this haven to you someday.

Travel down the cracking windy roads

Throw caution to the ever-blowing wind.

Gaze with me upon the sun-kissed cliff face

Listen to the crashing white waves’ din.

Give in to sleep on long returning journeys

Smile, my love; sweet slumber always wins.

I will show this haven to you someday.

Stroll amidst the golden hue of evening

Watch the sun sink slowly out of sight

See emerging stars between the rainclouds

As navy softly drowns the orange light

Forget all cares and troubles from your city

For only stares and smiles exist tonight.

I will show this haven to you someday.

Take my hand, don’t trip among the ivy

Let’s climb up the tallest of the trees

Look out upon the land and hills receding

Stand firm amidst the shaking autumn breeze.

If you’re still cold I’ll lend you my old scarf now

We’ll wipe away these wind-brought tears with ease.

Yes, I long to show this haven to you someday.
