The Fall Has Me
The fall has me remembering
days I couldn’t get enough of.
With longing I think back to spring
when hope was glowing! New was love!
Days I couldn’t get enough of -
breezes warm and the cool of night
when hope was glowing! New was love -
that time when all was fresh and bright!
Breezes warm and the cool of night,
the grass so green and sky so blue
that time when all was fresh and bright -
before spring's end; before years flew.
The grass so green and sky so blue;
pink blossoms on the trees in bloom -
before spring's end; before years flew. . .
how sweet the face of my young groom!
Pink blossoms on the trees in bloom!
With longing I think back to spring.
How sweet the face of my young groom!
The fall has me. . . remembering.
