Chocolate biscuits and a cup of tea,
By the bed, at six in the morning
Just as the new day is dawning.
Bacon sandwiches on white bread.
Wild birds always well fed.
A round of rummy and a turned wood bowl.
An open fire piled high with coal.
A garden buzzing with honey bees.
Christmas cake with icing please.
Rabbits burrow under the summer house.
A drill now home to a sleepy mouse.
A herd of sheep and a deer in the field.
A pear for dessert, carefully peeled.
A crossword puzzle and a good thick book.
Electric blankets and a view of the Nook.
A walk to the river every day.
A mint for the horse along the way.
Hydrangeas blooming by the path.
James Bond and an afternoon bath.
And always,
A workshop full of fresh sawdust.
