And when the snow begins to fall on cold winter mornings, I’ll give it all to you to keep you warm. I’ve saved some sunlight in case you need it. I believe it will drive off darkness and light your way. When you were nineteen, I kept the image of your smile in my mind. When you get older, you will know the meaning of brave young smiles. I don’t know how I can help you to start your journey through life. However, there will be solutions somewhere before the day is through. Whenever you need love, I’ll offer all I have. It might help you as you travel on your way, till you find the love that belongs to you. 1. Listen to the poem ‘I’ve saved the summer’ and answer these questions.
