Spring

Spring

Emerald spring
Long-ago
Magic moments
Dancing slow
As the newborn
Waters flowed
In spring

We sang songs soft and slow
Held hands and whispered low
Can I forget I loved you so
In spring
Roses bloomed, children sang
And our love a shining thing
Glowing, growing with our sharing
Until the night you left
In spring

Searing summer
Scorching fire
Hellish wins
Fanned my desire
Raging flames
A funeral pyre
Ashes of love that never was
In spring

Rainbow fall
Let me borrow
Painting through
Blue nights of sorrow
Colors for
A new tomorrow
A mask to hide the death of love
And spring

Bitter winter
Your winds blow
Burry dreams
Beneath the snow
Protect the seed
So it can grow
Into a more enduring love
In spring

We’ll sing songs soft and slow
Hold hands and whisper low
Then I’ll say I love you so
In spring

When roses bloom and children sing
Our love will be a shining thing
Glowing, growing with our sharing
A love that’s new
Eternal spring
Emerald Springs
Golden glow
Magic moments
Dancing slow
As the newborn
Waters flow
In spring
Glowing, growing with our sharing
A love that’s new
Eternal spring
