HOPE AND DESPAIR

Do you remember all those years ago,
That magical evening when first we met?
September always brings it back to me.
We were meant for each other, you and I.
I thought we’d share a life of bliss, 
For richer or poorer, in sickness and health.
But Autumn surely follows Summer’s heat;
So passion dies as lovers are replete.
Perhaps, in time, the memory will fade.
But then you came into my dreams last night

Borrowed from the following sonnets:
	Where did it go?
	Christmas Eve
	September Fall
	Fade Photographs
        Nobody Told Me
	Last Waltz
	Summer’s Heat
	From Sonnets To Sonnet
	Walk Away
	Visions
