"LOOKING FORWARD"

I'M GETTING QUITE EXCITED,THE MONTH IS GETTING NEAR.

AS SOON ENOUGH I'M GLAD TO SAY,I WON'T BE SITTING HERE.

I'LL BE FLYING OVER WATER,TO A PLACE THAT IS DIVINE.

SKIATHOS THE GREEK ISLAND IS SMALL BUT PRETTY FINE.

THE HOTELS OH! SO CHARMING,SET ABOVE THE BAY.

PALM TREES ALL AROUND THE POOL GRACEFULLY THEY SWAY.

SUNSHINE BEAMING DOWN UPON THE BEACH AS WHITE  AS FLOUR.

THE CHURCH TOLLS OUT A GENTLE SOUND EACH AND EVERY HOUR.

WHITEWASHED HOUSES ALL AROUND THE WINDING ROADS  SO NEAT.

THE SMELL OF SCENTED BLOSSOMS LINE THE BUSY STREETS.

IT REALY DOES LOOK PARADISE THE SEA SO BLUE AND CLEAR.

EVERYONES  SO HAPPY DRINKING A GLASS OF BEER.

THE SUN BEAMS DOWN UPON YOUR FACE AND YOU BEGIN TO BROWN.

AS YOU STROLL AROUND THE COBBLED STREETS ALL AROUND THE TOWN.

THE SHOPS ARE PACKED WITH TOURISTS EVERYTHING IS CHEAP.

ALL LOOKING FOR A SOUVENEER TO TAKE BACK HOME TO KEEP.

YATCHS AND BOATS IN HARBOUR READY FOR THE SAIL.

FISHERMEN SORT THIER CATCH OCTOPUS AND QUAIL.

BY 2'0'CLOCK THE SUNS RED HOT IT'S TIME FOR GREEK SIESTA.

BACK TO THE HOTEL FOR A KIP BEFORE TONIGHTS FIESTA.

AFTER TEA THE SUN GOES DOWN THE TOWN IS ALL AGLOW.

I LOOK OUT FROM MY BALCONY AND WATCH THE BLUE SEA FLOW.

IN THE DISTANCE I CAN HEAR THE SOUND OF MUSIC PLAY.

STRINGS OF LIGHTS IN THE BREEZE TOO AND FRO THEY SWAY.

WHEN MORNING COMES AT 6AM I WAKE UP WITH A SMILE.

A SHOWER THEN IT'S BREAKFAST BEFORE I SWIM A WHILE.

YOUR SUN TAN THEN GETS DEEPER AND EVERYONE LOOKS  SWELL.

DONT FORGET TO SPRAY THOUGH THE MOSQITO'S TO REPELL.

SKIATHOS  IS IDILICK THE BEACHES ARE THE BEST.

IN ALL OF THE GREEK ISLANDS,ITS WAY ABOVE THE REST.

SO ROLL ON QUICK, I CARN'T WAIT,TO JUMP UPON THE PLANE.

I'M"LOOKING FORWARD" TO IT,FROM THE COLD OLD ENGLISH RAIN.

 

 

"THE REUNION"

WHERE I LIVED A LONG TIME AGO.

I HAD TWO DEAR FRIENDS ,WHIER I WOULD GO.

EACH DAY THROUGHOUT TO HAVE A CHAT.

AND TALK ABOUT THIS AND THAT,

THEN CAME A SHOCK THEY HAD TO GO.

TO START A NEW LIFE AND LIVE AWAY.

I KNEW I'D MISS THEM MORE EACH DAY.

PETER WAS OFFERED A JOB ON A FARM.

SO OFF THEY WENT JUNE TAKEING IT CALM.

THE YEARS  PASSED BY AND WE SOMEHOW LOST TOUCH.

TWAS THEN I MISSED THEM OH! SO MUCH.

TWENTY NINE YEARS PASSED BY  IN ALL.

TILL I WOKE ONE MORN TO AN EARLY PHONE CALL.

"HELLO" SAID THE VOICE, IS IT KATH THATS THIER.

SEND HIM UP QUICK,I NEED A NEW LIGHT.

OUTSIDE THE BACK DOOR TO MAKE THE PATH BRIGHT.

HE'LL BE UP IN A FLASH,I'LL GIVE HIM A RING.

ON TOP OF THE WORLD I BEGAN TO SING.

TWO MINUTES LATER WAITING WITH GLEE.

I LOOKED THROUGH THE WINDOW MY FRIEND I COULD SEE.

I RAN TOWRDS HIM GAVE HIM A HUG.

DANCEING ABOUT LIKE AN EXCITED BUG.

I'TS LOVELY TO SEE YOU LOOKING SO WELL.
