HONEYSUCKLE VINE
Lyrics & Music by Alexander James Adams

The brightest of the flowers
Within the oaken wood-
Will keep me there for hours
Indulging as I should-
Sparkling with the morning dew
Smelling sweet and fine-
Nothing beats a wander through
The Honeysuckle Vine!

YOU MAKE THE WOODS A SAFER PLACE
AS ‘ROUND IT YOU ENTWINE-
MY JOURNEY’S BLESSED BY THE GRACE
OF HONEYSUCKLE VINE!

The darkest path of saw briar
Will rend and rip and snare-
But thorns will lose their fire
Engulfed by something fair-
For ‘round she wraps her gentle arms
Softening every point-
Adding all her scented charms
Of honey to anoint-

The truest form of balance
Is proven every day-
By Mother Nature’s talents
That happen as they may-
So when the thorns start growing out
Then take it as a sign-
To make yourself go walkabout
In Honeysuckle Vine!
