When Roses Fade.
Summer Is coming--her footsteps fall
In the deepening shadow of hedge and
wall
But the breezes signing a kind refrain,
Kiss her and lead her thro' Hollyhock
lane.
Summer is going-her bushes fade
Where the riotous climbing roses played,
And her withered garlands are tossed
aside
In the painted splendor of Autumn's
pride
Summer is going-her Junetime days
We're the sweetest notes in my song Of
praise,
SO my heart has fashioned them into a
That measures its Joy in her buoyant
Summer is going-she leaves me here
With the harvest gold and it's crimson
cheer.
But my heart to the sorrowing rose-tree
clings
And ever its fettered passion sings.
Summer Is gofng-why may not
With her to eternal roses fly?
out there In the gardens of endless June
Where life leads over Loves path, rose
strewn.
Summer is going-down Hollyhock lane,
But the cavalier asters are nodding In
vain;
For with quickening pace will she yet
withstand
The furious fires of Poppy land.
Summer Is going-it only seems
Her departure ends 1t starts-In
dreams;
