Enoch Powell: First Poems : XLI) The month the orchards bloom again

XLI) The month the orchards bloom again

The month that orchards bloom again,
Men greet the summer drawing on,
Yet secretly they count in vain
Their summers that have gone.

And so your coming makes me glad,
With youthful grace that holds the eye,
And yet my heart within is sad
For youth of mine gone by.
