Cottage Days
I dream of buying a cottage by the lake,
A beautiful cottage that overlooks the water.
Where you could live with a handsome friend,
He would collect the wood for the wood burning stove.
She would cook delicious food in the kitchen,
Parents and children would dine together in the living-room.
You could go swimming in the supervised area,
Travel in a canoe or rowboat on the water.
Go water skiing with a friend who has a motor boat,
Sail in an expensive yacht with a friend.
Summers at the cottage where you could walk along the sandy beach,
Watch the sunrise and sunset, how beautiful that appears.
Wear your favorite summer fashions and look slim in your favorite bathing suit,
Senior years you should remain healthy and active.
What a paradise to share with relatives and friends,
Always blessed by our Lord, God.
