BLACKBERRIES
When the woods were green
And the air was clear
And the sky was mottled
With fluffy clouds,
When the river was high
And the water was clean
And fish hid in the shadow
Of submerged rocks,
When the cars were small
And the traffic slow
And wild blackberries
Grew by the roadside,
You were my love
And I was yours
And everything
Was shining bright
The scenes have changed
And so have we, but
love has never faltered
And every day still shines as bright
As when we picked blackberries.

Old love is the best love.
