London


I love your misty mornings,
And your bracing evening breeze.
I love your parks and gardens,
And your great oak trees.
I love your terraced houses,
Along ordered, tree lined streets.
I love your big red buses,
Riding one is such a treat.
I love your West End theatres,
Restaurants, gallery's and shops.
I love your endless bustle,
It never ever stops.
I love the Thames Embankment,
With shore, lined with lights.
I love the Tower of London,
What an overwhelming sight.
I love lively Covent Garden,
With outdoor coffee tables.
I love to watch the buskers,
Earn as much as they are able.
I love the London Underground,
With trains, always on time.
I love evensong in Westminster Abbey,
With music so sublime.
I'm loath to leave you London,
I hate to say goodbye.
You'll always be a part of me,
Don't scold me if I cry.

Joy Weare
2nd August, 2004.
