The summer is almost over, <br />and winter is almost here. <br />The skies of blue are turning grey, <br />as the long nights are coming in. <br />They said our love was only <br />a summer affair. <br />After the chill of winter, <br />no love would be there. <br /> <br />Years have passed <br />since that summer, <br />and our love still grows each day. <br />We’ve had our good and bad times, <br />and together we have seen them through. <br />Our love is strong, <br />and even in our twilight years, <br />together we will be here. <br /> <br />Our summer affair has lasted, <br />longer than they thought. <br />It has brought us happiness, <br />which few will ever see. <br />It has brought us contentment <br />with our children three, <br />and it has brought everlasting love <br />for just you and me. <br /> <br /> <br />9 March 1996<br /><br />David Harris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-summer-affair/
