Oh, the cold mountain river,
There never was such a beautiful sight,
With flowers so sweet it would be shame for them to wither,
The wind always blows with all its might.

By the river, the cold mountain river, there are trees,
Tall weeping willows, they are,
If you listen, you can hear bees,
Bees which never go far.

Many birds there are, all with different song,
Every plant seems to move and lurch,
When from over the hills, comes the bong,
The bong of the far off village church.

Monster 3 Hello! Thanks for the email, sorry not replied yet been very busy, then we both fell asleep. Thankyou for telling me.Where mountain was, bit worried at first see title Monster 3. Couldn't think? Enjoyed all the news is it possible put a better name, as it alarmed me a bit,seeing Monster3 as opening on email, I mean it in a nice way, please. I must say so young, very good work, I am not good at punctuation, not a poet, and I'm a mum, she is grown up now. Sounds very picturesque. Do keep up your very good stories and poems, I think you have what it takes definitely. It is only keeping on, and interacting with all, and comments of all on AbcTales and reading their's helped me.And all help from Editor.T.cook. I am definitely more like an agony aunt. And do ask, anyone for help, you will get. I cannot get mine, as good as you though. Done over 100 and six cherries! not bad. Mine has been to France Dieppe, I won't travel. Once we went Jersey worse sea crossing ever! Then with a baby. Lovely place. cavalcaderl julie x
