Still here, my friend, not much to tell.
Winter came, wearied, went.
Spring—hurried skies, or sun or rain.
Hot summer days, hot sleepless nights.
Fall was fresher, raked what fell.
Another year. Mostly well.

I really liked this. In this sweet brief poem you got to the point where the rest of us might have lingered for pages. Excellent write, Keven.

Hey Kevin,
Love poems like these that speak volumes with very few words. Kind of ironic that you wrote a paragraph about a year through the seasons by way of a poem and I wrote poems about a year through the seasons by way of a book. Proves Jerry right about some people going on for pages. I see writing like yours as a distilling process and I admire it very much.

Enjoyed the poem...seems to mirror my life.

"Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less."
