It was such a long journey from place to place
That the sun burnt my arms resting on the wheel
Looking out the window of my travelling box
The countryside oozed slowly by
Drifting into my rear vision mirror
I saw the once green land turn brown in the fading sun
Turning to my companion I noticed a smile upon her face
Tinged with guilt, I asked her why
Her only reply was the touch of her warm hand
Reassuring me that despite the length of the journey the company was acceptable
Time passed, till as days end drew near we arrived at the beach
And laughed as the cooling waters lapped gently at our feet
Like a cats tongue
Slowly we relaxed as the red fire giant sank into the water
You could almost hear the sizzle as it disappeared from view
