Summer Smiles

He saw the autumn in her eyes As her love slowly fell away He held on to those summer sighs In the glow of love's dying rays He held the winter in his heart And his broken heart grew cold Will spring give love a new start When the daffodils bloom in gold? And as the flowers bloomed again He found a Rose to call his own And in her eyes he saw the rain Falling gently where love was blown He saw the summer in her smile And basked in the glow, for a while
