Somewhere Spring - somewhere Fall

Here in my heart spring there are daffodils
That peek through the tarnished leaves of fall,
And remind that love can from dormant call
And surge above distracting life's travails.

But I find your passion still enthralled
With snowy drifts of soft forgetfulness
That protect - yet hide this year's promise
To hope find ourselves in spirit fulfilled.

Our single needs may not now be the same,
Nor our dreams entwine to a common goal,
But 'tis Heaven's blessing that may enthrall
That our love o' life outlives this winter game.

A bulb once planted holds promise of life
To burst through the frost of earthly strife.
