The vale

Of sticks and stones,

Of fairies and elves,

the vale of lumequies is known.

Of chalk as cheese,

Of sand as sugar,

tea is served in the vale of lumequies.

Of boulders and sturdy trees,

Of trickling streams and chirping birds,

the tunes of lumequies vale resounds.

Of spinning wheels and pirate ships,

Of rustling bushes and secret missions,

adventures abound in lumequies vale.

Of wee lads and lasses,

Of daydreams and spirited play,

the vale of lumequies welcomes all.

Of memories from eons ago

when the mind ruled

and reality was a dream.

The vale of my youth.
