Summer's Gone

Summer’s gone and now it’s autumn,
It arrived ahead of due time,
Where are friends of happy springtime,
All are scattered off like leaves here,
All are scattered off like leaves here.

Some are lost in wartime tempests,
Some are also lost in peacetime,
Some - a long way off in childhood,
Some are gone when we were grown-ups,
Some are gone when we were grown-ups.

Oh I miss the days of long time,
Days so full of joyful pastime,
I’m so bored to roam in this life,
With no friend to roam in this life,
With no friend to roam in this life.

Oh we’ve lived, life’s almost over,
Done our chores, been in the warfare,
It’s so hard, so hard to find you,
But much easier to lose you,
But much easier to lose you.

Oh how fast is gone, is scattered
That joy early, premature.
Often on my way remember,
Oh that wondrous thing – my first love,
Oh that wondrous thing – my first love.

What sensation is remembrance,
Heart is burdened with such sadness,
On the paths when young in years
Girl I lost – a dream of my life,
Girl I lost – a dream of my life.

Oh I wish I saw her one time,
Wish again to feel heart pounding,
I’m so bored to be so lonely,
Bored to roam without loving,
Bored to roam without loving.

Oh we’ve lived, life’s almost over,
Done our chores, been in the warfare,
It’s so hard, so hard to find you,
But much easier to lose you,
But much easier to lose you.

Thank you, my dear friends, for appreciation.
I was thinking about how little we need to lift our spirits up - a touching attention like this may keep one afloat and kicking.

If you give a little love you will get it back for sure (but make sure you give it!).
I have attached a video belonging to a Czech Christian organization Križovatka, showing how important it is to do good in many little ways: making way for somebody, giving a helping hand to a person who fell down or simply smiling at someone (what else could be easier?!). People learn doing good things from one another, which is passed on in a domino principle and makes the one walking behind follow the example of one walking ahead. In four minutes’ time we can see how little it takes, in fact no effort at all, to do a good thing: it only takes noticing others beside and understanding their needs. It is like "My love is my whole being" in real.




I can relate the video to this little corner: many good things have been and are being done here! Wish I were not so busy and could dedicate you more time. Long live Poet's Corner!wine heart wings
