Alone by the fire



 

 

Alone by the fire

There’s one spark in the embers

But more in the skies

 

Each one speaks to me

But I still wish they were you

To hold my hand now

 

Winter and spring come

Summer taunts and passes by

But autumn’s here now

 

And tears like the leaves

Fall in memory of you

Dancing in my heart

  4. Autumn can be a lonely place..literally and metaphorically..thankfully we have some light..although it can't always be touched..

  5. Such a sad and beautiful poem. I really enjoyed the imagery of the first stanza and the line 'And tears like the leaves/ Fall in memory of you.'
