Delilah will always have a special place
In our family’s history
Driving our love ever forward
To places full of mystery.
*
The scent of freshly mown grass
Like a gift upon the summer breeze
Summer sun upon my pale face
Promising a tan to come.
*
The trickle of a cool clear stream
A blanket upon its perfect banks
Straw hat and sunglasses the order of the day
Sitting with my sun dressed wife.
*
A picnic with every kind of treat
To warm my hearts memory
Tasty delights with an ice-cold drink
To kick start our reverie.
*
The campervan parked nearby
On the first day of our honeymoon
Many countries we shall visit along the way
In our moving hotel room.
*
Our romance perfect on the road
Two gold rings newly forged
A different place each night
To love in a life newly merged.
*
Delilah guides us on our way
Our trusty steed and home
Bright flowers hand-painted
On its flanks, they bloom.
*
The best days of our lives
The three of us travelling near and far
Living and loving along the way
Delilah, my wife and I.
