The Oak

To sit beneath a great oak in all its glory
Its boughs home to dreams and thoughts
It stands in all its majesty for two friends
One Oak in America and one oak in the UK.

In the fading light of the day she sits and thinks
In the warmth of the day time sun he sits and thinks.
The time difference matters not for the grand old oak
For one thought travels throughout its bark.

She loves her oak, the serenity it gives her,
To sit and dreams her dreams of finding love
Is it possible at her age, or is it just a dream
The oak sends out a calming effect on her.

He sits his back against the Oak his mind busy
He loves the beautiful views from the tree,
he relaxes against it and his mind wanders
to the loneliness of the Cowboy alone

They found each other through the internet
Helping each other a friendship strong and true,
For like their oaks they are both loyal of heart
A special bond between them that won't be broken.
