Cottage of Stone

There is a little cottage down by the sea That serves warm scones and pots of tea An old tired cottage made of stone That stands pridefully all alone An elderly couple sit outside She hands him a scone with jam and cream applied He pours her tea from a teapot of vivid blue As the morning sun wakes and lazily peeks through A scruffy little dog wanders over to her seat Plonks himself down on top of her feet Happily they sit at this little cottage made of stone A cottage abundant with love and memories They call home!

Happiness personified. Lovely images of sheer perfection. I am going to sell my house and buy a little dog. I missed you, Deb.
