Cryopreserved Memories of Love

Frosty greetings on the green outside my door  
Icy tracings left by frozen spectres of the night  
Mirroring the lonely lines inside my mind  
Where chilly ghosts of you remind my reaching arms  
That as the summer brown-eyed Susans you have wilted  
Gone, those sunny petals of your wistful smile  
Left alone the dotted memories of a love forever chained  
Yet I will don my winter coverings  
Crunch my searching feet through browning leaves  
and frostbitten grassy dreams  
Ever seeking through the changing seasons  
For your hidden love—somewhere, somehow it beats  
A muffled song of your desire persisting  
Memories hibernating, not forgotten, our forever passion  
Cryopreserved this autumn morning  
Awaiting an awakening  
of your love
