Kew Gardens

The air was cool
On lilypools
Hazy, lazy
And here and there
He’d stop to stare
Admiring all the flowers (Kew Gardens)
Wandering round for hours (Kew Gardens)
The sun was warm
Across the lawn
Scented, blended
He saw her linger
And with her finger
Open up a rose (Kew Gardens)
Standing on tiptoes (Kew Gardens)
Suddenly the rain came flurrying
Sending the two of them hurrying
Helter skelter for the shelter
And feeling bolder in the great pagoda
He gently inquired her name
And they waited till the sunshine came (Kew Gardens)
And for a while
The gryphon smiled
Kindly, blindly
Till the evening bell
Broke the spell
And sadly they said goodbye (Kew Gardens)
And one of the gryphons cried
In Kew Gardens
