| There was never winter summer only roses | B |

| Summer never was was always winter only | H |
| Cold and ice and frost | D |
| Only driven by the ice wind lonely | H |
| In a world of strangers in the welter | I |
| Of the puddles and the spiteful wind and sleet | D |
| Blinded by the spitting hailstones lost | D |
| In a bitter unfamiliar street | D |
| I found a doorway crouched there for just shelter | I |
| Crouched and fought in vain for breath | J |
| Cursed the cold and wished for death | J |
| Crouched there gathered somehow warmth to sleep | F |
| Slept and dreamed there Summer was the dream | G |
