On them lay the summer sun, <br />two people joined as one, <br />rays of light fill their hair, <br />they rest in arms of silent care. <br /> <br />Trees abound, great oaks of strength, <br />tearful day so long in length, <br />wood bench seated, overlook a lake, <br />water ripples a bird awake, <br />lovers happy on an August day, <br />peace in the gardens, fear away. <br /> <br />To Kew in the summertime, <br />feel the tender world in rhyme, <br />a dream of love, a day out there, <br />at one with love in Kew you share.<br /><br />Richard Allen Beevor<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/kew-gardens-a-scene/
