our honeymoon was fabulous at the start
then our love story fell quickly apart
this terrible occurrence wasn't foreseen
when it happened our dream lost its sheen

as with everything in life an end did arrive
we realized our love wouldn't survive
some said as I got older things would change
their advisories weren't so strange

here I am to-day thinking about my love
and how he got too hot for this turtle dove
I once so adored his scorching sunniness
but the heat he exerted finished in dryness

my darling summer man now isn't in favor
I've become partial to a winter man's flavor
