Prompt: Summer was gone and the heat died down
And Autumn reached for her golden crown
I looked behind as I heard a sigh
But this was the time of no reply.

Time goes by from year to year
And no one asks why I am standing here
But I have my answer as I look to the sky
This is the time of no reply.

Notes: Pre-slash. Sixth year. Lily waits for the Marauders after a full moon. I struggled with this prompt so the influence isn't obvious. It's semi-there, though. Apologies for the lateness - I was going to catch up tonight but one of my housemates brought home Dangermouse on DVD. So, um, apologies if Peter Pettigrew sounds like Penfold ;)
