Notes About The Poem
 
 

Grief of Betrayal

Oh summer’s love flown
gone with the swallows on wing,
life now insipid
when warmth torn out of one’s heart
like the pending storm; freezes.

this is penetratingly sad to think about, not only summer going , but never let the warmth be torn from ones heart I am sure that will never happen xx xx
