Summers' fading fast My flowers droop and hang their head Soon the birds will all fly south Now even my lovely garden's dead. Soon dying leaves will fall  Swirling russet, orange and golden hue The loneliness....will then set in Causing me...to always think of you. For you are gone far away And I'm so alone..... With only memories of our time A love that really was sublime When we held each other close In an embrace of precious love. Remembering our time together Through all this changing weather How I yearn for your return. Then Autumn winds will blow Ripping off the remaining leaves The trees will then stand stark and bare Then the sadness sets in and even deep despair. The Winter wind races by It chills my bones and stings my face But in my heart....it is pure ice In my soul a terrible, empty place. Oh how I miss you I wish you were here To dry my tears and kiss me once again Whisper gentle words into my ear Words that heal and cause my heart to mend. But Spring will come again When lilacs perfume the air Return to me...is my silent prayer.
