Sara TeasdaleStephen kissed me in the spring, Robin in the fall, But Colin only looked at me And never kissed at all. Stephen’s kiss was lost in jest, Robin’s lost in play, But the kiss in Colin’s eyes Haunts me night and day.
About This Quote
In the spring, two lovers meet. In the fall, they part. In the winter, they go their separate ways. In the spring of life, a kiss is a sweet memory.
In the autumn, a kiss is a good-bye. In the winter, a kiss means nothing at all.
