A delightful sanctuary for family fun.
a restful utterance of joy
this rhythm and flow this energy of life,
proves as natural as breathing.
This house fills your eyes with pretty visions
of eclectic art and precious belongings.
It enfolds, caressing you with every comfort.
As light puffy wisps of pearly white clouds drift
across our beloved England, corks popped,
laughter and joyous sounds rise from
steamy scented jacuzzi warmly enfolding,
Vivid clarity of light brings joy and endless fun.
It fills our memories, brings togetherness
like nothing can.
Hunt the eggs with Pops,
bake the tiny cakes for little hands, with Auntie Ann,
as the men play football with much skill,
tiny feet kick ball to goal.
Walks in the grounds down to a lake,
through dripping juicy pear trees!
Trying all the garden chairs and comfy swing
all in warm balmy air.
These are our memories, just for us to treasure.
As beautiful laughter fills the air,
enticing aromas seamlessly sail
through from the kitchen,
they tickle our noses with delight.
Tantalising Amuse-bouche, specially
selected Mouton Cadet,
holding its own special memories,
all precedes exquisite international cuisine,
all cooked to perfection, second to none!
Quiz night with oohs and ahhhs
Stretching those puzzled brains
All in a state of physical ease.
To share this time, to be a part of this
Interlude, has been a seamless delight.
Thank you Woodland Lodge
with your warm embrace and many magic touches,
thank you lovely family and new friends.
Perhaps one day we will return,
Until then these memories of being together will sustain us.¦
Susie Hemingway.
