To England We Shall Go

To England we shall go
with books in tow

My score
at the book store
will help us on our way

Stories to read
memories to make
indulging our whims and needs
we may stroll by a lake

Taking paths down country roads
getting lost and getting found
discoveries profound

Hedgerows brushing, beating their sound
keeping rhythm 
ticking down
moments in our her-story
rooted back to this land
entwined threads knotted by clasping hand
the warp and weft
deeply tied and bound

Travels and travails
tribulation and treasure
shared

To England we shall go
continuing to weave and show
colour and pattern
only time will know
To England we shall go
