Away

Music in my head: Gentle Giant- On Reflection
Today's weather: Sunshine, finally.

Walking through mist on an overcast day,
Damp and cold, yet I plod away.
Away from warmth, from a sunny day,
Away from home I wander away.
"It's lovely, its fun, the flowers in May,"
As I walk away, I can hear them say.
It's lovely all right, but try as I may,
I'm chilled to the bone, whatever they say.
Many miles from home, almost light-years away,
The mist and the wind, they persist, they stay.
Always the summers are slipping away,
Find me a way for making it stay.
