We Never Said Good Bye

I love you in spring… When the sun kiss the dew upon virgin grass When robins build their nests high up in tall trees And soft rain quenches the thirst of the rich, black earth Making music with watering cans on the patio floor That lulled us into slumber on lazy Sunday afternoons I love you in summer… When surf dances atop playful, swelling waves Its wild and loud roars drowns out carefree laughter And mimicks our frolicking beneath the blazing sun Inviting us to share warm nights beneath dazzling stars Wrapped as one, gazing the moon in the southern sky I love you in autumn… When brisk winds hurry to undress proud elms When casual walks and a fire signals the end of day In love, we never notice the fading sun light Then comes the day when ‘jealous fate’ interferes And time swallows the many years we’ve been apart Soon, winter comes and I will love you still… When frigid weather lingers long and chills the bones Can lovers’ hearts call through corridors of time? Perhaps, deepest love dissolves invisible walls? At last, you’ll find me here, somewhere in between And who knows, it may be like we never said good bye ~*~
