MEMORIES
Галочка we are now in the winter of our lives.
Time has quickly slipped away
And I think of our lives together,
The moments that we enjoyed and treasure
What we have done and what we have seen
Our time in Kazakhstan that gave us so much pleasure
We admired the mountains of Almaty,
Our walks in those mountains, especially in the snow,
How we collected fresh water from the mountain stream
The times we were lived in England in a little village there
Our walks in the fairground very late at night
The magic and beauty of those nights we couldn’t divide
We stared at the heavens with awe and admiration
We tried to define and call many stars and constellations.
We made some, Perseus, Cygnus, Orion the Big Dipper.and others
Now we are in Russia, the city of Saint-Petersburg
There are no mountains, the stars we cannot see
But we still enjoy our nightly walks.
The 300 Anniversary Park its peace and tranquility
Although we have done and seen many things
enjoyed so many experiences and marvellous views
And now we cannot travel, can only think and dream
We can still enjoy our greatest treasure
A marvel and treasure the world could never give
It’s you Галочка and I being together
