Seasonal Awakenings Leaves are twirling, gently falling Winter’s approaching, softly calling Closing slumbering Summer’s door ‘Til Spring awakens her once more What lies behind us and lies before us are small matters compaired to what lies within us. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson |

I love the simplicity and the verses, the blending of all four seasons as you have described them, Ruth. "When red-haired girls scamper like roses over the rain-green grass, and the sun drips honey."" Laurie Lee Kathleen |

I would expect no less from such a well-seasoned poet  Being happy doesn't mean everything's perfect; it just means you've decided to see beyond the imperfections. |
