Another Year

by Dave Milsom - Gemini


Rising spring awakens, colouring the sky
pulsing beat of nature calling, GAIA hears it cry 
The doves are calling for me 
but I cannot hear
without you, 
for another year

Lazy softedged summer, river basking calm
Catching your reflection, ripple broken gone
songbirds may be singing, 
but so insincere
without you 
for another year

every season moves just the same
I find myself in mirrors, breathing your name


Autumn rain falling, October grey
shedding leaves, tossing life away
touch craving empty, 
longing for you near
without you, 
for another year 

New years eve, callous Auld Lang Syne
Foolish friends believe, kissing and wine
but their laughter is an echo
devoid of cheer
without you, 
for another year
