When Winter Comes, Remember Me

•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• When Winter comes, remember me beside you on those ivory sands If frozen fingers reach for thee, arise and fling aside her hands As you awake on shortening days, when Winter comes, remember me We'll pray that Frost forsake his grays and set arrays of color free Light snow may fall so subtly, bright notes on parchment sheer as sleet, when Winter comes. Remember me, that I might play each shimmering sheet Short interlope of Summer gone, I'm owed no scope of reverie but hope you will, from this day on, when Winter comes, remember me.... ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
