Lily of the Valley
Below the mist covered mountains lies a valley of beauty so rare
As I view from the flowery meadow, I look on in awe and stare
It's moss covered slopes in carpet, a greenery so rich like a vein
The hillside undulations grace like a wedding dress train
The cascading of translucent pure, these waterfalls of delight
Each with a different voice as they sing through the day or night
Trees so iconic standing proud as they reach up to the warming sun
Magnificent they are in their splendour, they're not to be outdone
As I sit down and admire the meadow, it's riches befall my eyes
The colours of greens and pastels makes every one a prize
As I close my eyes and listen, I hear many marvels all around
From insects that buzz to chirping birds in this beautiful surround
I turn my head as she calls me, my love in her white summery dress
She's my lily of the valley, her beauty in my eyes caressed
We lie back and take it all in, this place on this planet earth
For our children and our children's children, it's kept in it's worth
Below these mist covered mountains lies a valley of beauty so rare
Is there anywhere else out there, that could possibly compare
