~To me this poem came to naturally. It's a wonderful telling of my two favorite subjects;Love and Nature. This poem has many symbols and can be interpreted in many different ways. If you'd like to take the time, just email me or look for me online and I'll give you my personal interpretation. But, please, enjoy what I think is my greatest writing and perhaps the last I will ever post~

Death is Beautiful when it becomes Fall
The trees lose their leaves but still stand tall
The leaves that fall are Brown, Orange and Red
Such Gorgeous colors for things that are dead
A wonderful season where Love is at chance
Filled with Lust, Passion and Romance
Couples come home to candles and wine
Lighting a fire and ready to dine
Soft pianos fill the atmosphere
But the Lust in each other's eyes is the only thing they hear
As their lips touch, time becomes endless
And without saying a word, their Love is confessed
Their hearts are big, it Loves and it cries
As they look and get lost in each other's eyes
Just one more touch, one more kiss
For it's something one day they both might miss
One more look, one more glare
One last endless moment to stop and stare
To marvel at beauty, to know it's her
Is this true Love? He's not quite sure
To marvel at grace, to know it's him
Is this true Love? It looks very grim
And just like black clouds roll in the sky
Happiness ends and they say goodbye
Their world's are dark, lonely and gray
They want to come back to each other to stay
There is no one to kiss, no one to hold
And Love is a story that was just once told
They are both gone but want to know where
The clouds are parting and the Love is still there
The clouds part and melts the cold snow
And both their hearts tell them where to go
He marvels at Beauty, she marvels at Grace
As both of them run to firmly embrace
Their Love was a destiny, there for a reason
Isn't Spring such a beautiful season....

Dear Seth,
This is an extraordinarly beautiful poem. You have written it so gracefully, full of imagery and deep emotion. I felt the poem as I read it. I loved the words you used to describe natures colors and loves emotions.
So why would this be your last post? You just joined here, (as did I)...I hope you will share much more of your work with us.
Take Care, Janet Marie

Well I can't help but be scared of it all sometimes,
Says the rains gonna wash away I believe it."

How often I've thought of the dying leaves in their array of beautiful colors and tried to relate that to the beauty of eternal heaven in our own deaths from earth.  Your writing is supurb!  I pray you'll reconsider this being your last post, if it's a choice, and if not my prayers are with you.  God bless.

Oh,my,Oh,my!  Thought provoking and leaves one wondering to the last.  Beautifully written with such feeling.  Please don't let it be your last posting.  I loved the way you showed that love has seasons.  Beautiful.
