You are my favourite song

You are my favourite song,
a lullaby I will never forget,
a book with pages worn and loved,
the smell of rain on hot bitumen,
a lone jonquil on a winter’s morn,
the aroma of bread baking in a tin,
lazy moments dozing in the sun,
wind-swept hours by the sea,
in my mind, you will always be.
