I step back and see myself transitioning out of Spring,
sitting down and imagining what Summer will bring.

I smile at the uncertainty and the hopefulness of happier days,
laugh at the warmth of a bonfire's blaze.

Summer is supposed to be the funnest part of the year,
yet for some reason that is my biggest fear.

Twenty-one years of Spring and now its time for something new,
time for the flowers and rain to say adieu.

Years from now I will be in the Fall,
my favorite season of them all.

When life is settled and my own children will be fresh like rain.
a husband by my side and happiness will be hard to contain

Winter- so cold and wet
I'll see you in heaven- that's a sure bet!


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is more about the transitions and change in life altogether. Spring being the beginning of life and I would say Summer starts in your Twenties and so on. It was hard writing about Winter because- well in Texas its everyone else's Fall haha

This is wonderful. Of course I would argue that you are in full Spring, but your ponderings are beautiful and show that you will be always very much aware of being in the flow of life, whatever ...

As you say it is always "Season of Change" ... and we won't be stuck forever in Winter either ...

Very very nice.

Love,
Margherita
