Chiltern Morning
Whirling, whistling, wheeling
The red kites greet the day
Above the frosted hillsides
Like children out to play
Snowdrops on the roadside
Hint at coming Spring
When length'ning days and growing warmth
Will nature's bounty bring
Along the quiet country lane
Past sturdy stone-built barn
Where swollen stream in meadow green
Flows t'wards a silent farm.
Cross village scene there comes the sound
Of happy schoolyard fun
As cottages stand slumbering
Beneath the wintry sun.
