Larks turned into ravens
and sun
lost in night's forest
of shadows and mist,
couldn't find morning again.

Galloping clouds
in the shape of gazells
fell into the sea
along with the lions
and all turned to salt again.

Wind whistled laments
through maples
and river birch,
turned summer leaves
the brown shades of autumn again.

Winter rode in
on thundering hooves,
a wild eyed blue stallion
bearing the ice princess
who dared not love again.

Moon drew her up
on pity's wing
rocked her as a child
in its milky crescent and sang
her the lullabye of trust again.

Welcome to Pip, dear hyacinth blue!

I love the whole poem and the above especially.

Very beautiful!

Love,
