Remember the lakes

Do you remember when we visited the lakes

just your brother, you and me,

We went to a hotel and had coffee and cakes

you paddled in the shallow edge of the lake

negociating pebbles as you enjoyed your dip

watching the water ripple

and the sun shining onto the lake

making it look like shimmering silver!

you could not have been even four

But you enjoyed it so much 

you just wanted more! 

Then at the hotel you pinched my tia maria

when I went to bar to collect my coffee

you said it was yummy and that I did fear

Someone so little as you

Thats not what you do!

But we had a lovely time as I remember 

The beautiful lakes

I think it must have been September!
