Thank you for walking

Thank you for spending one day,
|
with a stranger
|
|
Good morning. Hello! Choose a color, carnation
|
we'll walk along.
|
|
Down round the pond, up the hill bricks and steeples
|
it's not all gone... I recall
|
|
Thank you for walking
|
Thank you for spending one day,
|
with a stranger
|
|
Thank you for talking
|
and showing the way to a stranger
|
|
Wining and dining (what a September)
|
from bags by the river (I should've worn a sweater)
|
a sun, sail, song (it's cooler up here)
|
|
We sat on a wall (oh my)
|
rest our feet (just a little longer)
|
touch our noses
|
|
Then slow poke on... oh, I recall
|
|
One red carnation
|
the color for April
|
and apples
|
and wine
|
|
I suppose it was white... but I needed the rhyme.
|
|
As I packed up to leave oh, I noticed the fountain,
|
the statue's hand.
|
|
There in her bronzed, moistened, palm
|
red carnation
|
Without you there... I recall
|
