The David Macdonald Lounge
Resting by the fire in a high back chair
drinking in the peaceful atmosphere
enjoying quiet time away from home
Queen Elizabeth, in regal robes
gazes serenely over the lounge
fire blazes cheerily in the hearth
Leather sofas with matching chairs skirt the walls
and a pair of striped high backs, like sentinels
guard the portrait of the Queen
Scenic paintings, tastefully displayed
grace the golden walls on which they hang
lamps and hanging lanterns gently glow
Navy blue carpet, yellow flowers peeking
through
muted soft light streams through high windows
add notes of sunny warmth to my lovely stay
