SUMMER’S FOLLY

SUMMER’S FOLLY

Summer fades, and autumn summons
You are my folly

The winds are silent
As they rush by
Grim

Uncaring

You are my folly

My ruin

Summer fades, and autumn summons

The moon takes flight
Without a glance
In solitude

The cup has emptied
And the hearth burns low
The shadows stilled

You are my downfall

Summer fades, and autumn summons
You are my folly
