 the gypsy poet

view of corfe


      down country lanes
      and village haunts
      i took my love
      one zummer morn

      the birds were singing in the trees
      blossoms rich were in the breeze
      the church bells were ringing loud
      twas enough to draw the village crowd

      the swans were floating on the river piddle
      i told my love a little riddle
      the sun it was a shining bright
      there were no clouds
      twas just so right

      the hares were leaping in the corn
      and all was well
      twas sunday morn

      the rooster crowed across the dell
      i told my love
      twas for her i fell

      i took her to a shady tree
      and spoke her verse
      so eloquently

      she was but a village girl
      a country child
      so pure and poor
      i was but a strapping yobo lad
      and promised her of all i had
      and more

      where rabbits ran across the heath
      tractors plough furrowed the meadow
      the view of corfes castle was a show
      my love twas sweet
