A Forgotten Love A Poem by JC Hawkens That which I long for I left somewhere in the past My lovely fall dream When my winter came Long lost in spring was she gone My sweet sad sorrow Thinking of fall days Lost in thoughts of tomorrow May of what will come Hope of future days Beauty is she that follows Hearts mend on morrow

The past gets us like that, for real, "if only", the "if onlies".

I know, right. But what sweet remembrance those memories can be. And in poetic verse, what more adorable.

Thank you Andrea. Fall is one of my favorite seasons. And it makes me feel a little melancholy too. Thank you for the compliment. And I'm glad you enjoyed it.

To be interested in the changing seasons is a happier state of mind than to be hopelessly in love with spring. Your love is within you...
