Dorset days out

in this quiet corner of the world
where love and peace reside
i watched the birds all in their flight
the spays upon the tides

the cottage nestled in the shade
beside a flowing stream
where thatch and bower meet the sky
in my Dorset country scene

the cottages of stoborough green
the fields and meadows mean
the growing lilac and the reeds
the splendid village scenes

the castle high upon the hill
where Cromwell came to call
where royal blood and honored blood was spilled
before the victors fall

i hear the calling of the cows
the sheep amongst the green
where village zunners ran and played
where kings were crowned and queens were laid

the hills of purbeck beckons me
with Hardy tales anew
where Barnes and blyton told their yarns
where grockels came to Poole
