Summer's Heat
SUMMER’S HEAT
When I first saw you in the early spring
Of our grand love affaire I instantly
Became aware of new life blossoming
Within my heart and knew we had to be..
Then in the summer sun our passion flared,
Engulfing us; an all consuming fire
Of love and lust that left us almost scared
By the intensity of our desire.
But Autumn surely follows Summer heat
And as the dying leaves begin to fall,
So passion dies as lovers are replete
And all too soon there’s nothing left at all.
Now winter comes with grey skies up above
And all I have are memories of love.
