Denuded Flowers
Remain
A Stark Witness
Of A Summer Season
Past
As Autumn
Slips Under
Winter’s Blanket
Of Snow
That Mother Nature
Covers Us With
And We Dream Of Seasons
Past That Were
Filled With Love
And Blossoms
Blooming
In The Sunshine
Of Love
And The Tenderness
Of Gentle Breezes
And Soft Warm Rain
Vivid Colors
Were A Proof Of Life
To My Soul
And The Touch Of Spring
Is A Treasured Memory
Of My Heart
That It Will Not
Surrender
And Through
The Dreamy Blur
Of Winter’s
Hibernation
My Heart
And Soul
Have Hope
And Faith
In The Love
And Joy
That Lies
In The Future
And In The New
Life And Love
That Will
Find Me
With
The Return Of Spring
