Follow the Jewels

Bustling town along the seaside, sapphires glitter upon the ocean Buildings made of ivory stones, ruby shingles full of devotion Clock tower of rosette bricks, stand proudly in the centre Chimneys bellow wooden aromas, furnaces release fireflies ember Trees rattle with glimmering peridots, grass cheer of emerald green Warmth of the radiant sun, with raindrops of aquamarine Wisteria wanders along picket fences, laundry waves in the summer breeze Lazy cat saunters the neighbourhood, gardens smell of fresh potpourri Children sing on playgrounds, while grown ups still fly kites Pensioners play chess at parks, all souls gentle as twilight Bakers with jolly humble bellies, generously feeding all Firestones lit early mornings, offer warm milk to every paw Quaint little coffee shops, fill the town with pep and perk Plenty of peaceful antique seats, crafted by marvellous woodwork Yarn shops stuffed with the softest, rainbow of colours cascade the wall Coziest couch by the fire, wearing a cherished heirloom shawl Bookstores dazed with literature, collections of prints flood the floor Hidden meows from high shelves, fables and tales travel offshore Bountiful are the crystal orchards, anglers sail the open water Fairy lights usher the evening streets, everyday auras of sweet laughter Guidance to this serene haven, exist when my head touches a pillow Follow the jewels across the sky, wake up under a weeping willow
