Summer's End/ Summer's Memories

The broad road now diverged

Into a thousand and one ways

Each leading, to a different path

Only one can only take

As the moment of this season

Slowly reaches its very end.

Mountains and valley stand

As chasms and oceans lie dormant between us

Meeting again, most probably never

Unless our paths cross again

Down the years yonder.

So for the time we shared

While the leaaves were still green-

I hoped, you have really enjoyed

The sweetness of the summer friuts

During our walks, in the lush orchards

And down the quiet gardens......

Because I did,

and I enjoyed every one of it.

And I hope,

Even after the summer's end

The lively summer's memories

will still remain and breathe- eternal

Even when the darkness comes

And the trees turn bare;

And you will remember

This dear night wind

To whom you have lent a patient ear

and listened, to his silent whispers

whose heart you can always find

to be a faithful friend

-just because you were there,

and I found you listening.

To the friend who lent me her pencil

So that I could finish this poem:

This song of mine, I dedicate this to you.

Thank you.

All the best for the days to come

But do remember this:

That you will never be alone

Because you will always have love

Faithfully by your side

And you will always remember me

Everytime you feel the wind blows

In the middle of a silent night.
