The Seasons Four

A summer's golden rays will shine upon the dawn
in sweeping sleeping beams,
The vibrant green around the hill...reflects the
dew upon the lawn...
myriads of liquid... drifting dreams,
her warmth upon my soul will steal a thousand smiles.
Her energy unending...
in the cycle of the miles.

An autumn's earth pastel will color all the land
in friendly flowing grace,
The camouflage of color...the portraits of the grand
in every special space,
her drafts of wind upon my skin will heal a
thousand hurts.
Her canvas of life's luster...
full of fading...seasoned spurts.

A winter's numbing blast of cold upon the heath
in freezing fun with frost,
The shivering of little children and the
chattering of teeth
in icing of some ages lost
and not to mention all the snowy days and slowing
down of time
his blanketing of hail and snow...
upon the halls of rhyme.

A spring's running rain will refresh and invigorate
the flowers
in torrents often true,
The chirping of the cardinal's song, nature soon
empowers many more than few,
her breath bestows the cycle fair and fine upon her
eyes.
Her dreams adrift in deluge
and demand that life arise.

The Seasons Four I say to thee
all balanced within harmony...
Continuing forever on
your spirits great and vast
the forces of what nature holds
shall look upon my future dear
and hold sacred my dear past!

-Jedi

Well done!

Lots of vivid views of the seasons.

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.
