This River

Inspired by one of my Muse's favourite songs

By Mike Singleton πŸ’œ Mikeydred Published 3 years ago β€’ 1 min read

This came to me based on some gorgeous skies today, clouds and my Muse's love of the Joni Mitchell song.

A Robbie Burns poem crept into my words so I have also included the Eddi Reader version at the end of this poem.

πŸ’–πŸ’œπŸŒŠπŸ’§πŸŒŠπŸ’œπŸ’–

I'd Love To Sail On This River With You

To Discover Things That We Never Knew

Under Trees Of Green, We Can Sail Away

And Be With Each Other Day After Day

πŸ’œπŸŒŠπŸ’§πŸŒŠπŸ’œ

We're Autumn Lovers As We Drift Along

In This Magical Place With Elven Songs

Soothing Our Souls As We Are Holding Hands

Closer Than Ever In These Faerie Lands

πŸ’œπŸŒŠπŸ’§πŸŒŠπŸ’œ

We Slowed And Then You Gave Me Ae Fond Kiss

Words Of Robbie Burns We Would Never Miss

The Time With You Is My Perfect Treasure

The Joy From You I Can Never Measure

πŸ’œπŸŒŠπŸ’§πŸŒŠπŸ’œ

You Are The One On My Mind Every Day

Wherever You Are That's Where I Will Stay

πŸ’–πŸ’œπŸŒŠπŸ’§πŸŒŠπŸ’œπŸ’–
