On warm hot summer days
I love to listen for the ringing of bells on the ice cream trucks, and the buzzing of
bees, the smell of fresh roses growing on the side of the house and the smell of
fresh vegetables growing from the garden in the backyard
I love to sit on the patio holding hands while we watch the sunset go down
remembering all the good memories oh how I love doing that every summer but
now since you're gone the summers hasn't been the same oh how I wish you were
still here.
It was a beautiful summer morning,
Sitting there with you,
In the early mornings light
Everything was fresh and new.
It brought back a summer that faded too fast.
But I know now, it was not to last.
But it brought back those warm august nights.
Spent out under a thousand star lights.
And a warm summer breeze will always render,
The memories of a summer spent in surrender.
I still long for it, right up to winter’s first frost.
Him, those days, but mostly the innocence lost.
And it does this heart good to see you form time to time.
If only to relive that much simpler time.
I wonder does your mind drift back to those days.
Or was it simply an awkward teenage phase?
You too had said we’d always be,
But we both knew as the summer faded, so would we.

I shall miss the poetry
hiding in your smile,
or the way your hand
fit once, inside of mine.
In bitterness my heart turns
against me, longing to feel
again the beat of yours;
one, two, in time.
A summer romance
as they all say, it seems
never stand the test of time
no matter the hopes we place.
I am forever in debt
to the wonder and love
you shared with me
those summer nights.
The agony, in hopes, will pass,
but, with tenderness will I
look upon the memories
we have here shared.
I shall miss the beauty
of your eyes, and the wonder
of your kiss. Those nights under the stars;
goodbye, my love, goodbye.
The green of Summer dims her lust
The trees shed tears of Red and Gold
I close my eyes and try to forget us
But longing memories must unfold
The way I held her
The way we kissed
Her eyes of love
Her ruby lips
To hear her laughter
To hear her cry
The pain of sorrow
That ends in goodbye
I close my eyes, the nights grow longer
I feel the pain, the days grow cold
I search for answer to ponder
Amist a sea of Red and Gold
Those carefree days of Summer flee
With love's memory I befall
As Autumn beckons to surround me
Winter's nearing, her presence calls
A Springtime fancy
A Summer's love
An Autumn's lost
A Winter's rest
All for my heart to endear
Into this chorus of Autumn I fall
As Fall's breezes sing of a love so dear
In Autumn's Song her love I recall
