Seasons Of You

you are a lilac’s song
at the first day of spring
and I want to play along
with the melody you sing
yes the notes of a sparrow’s tune
rhythm chased from a heart
are beats that simply hang the moon
where two beats in measure can not part
you are roots that shoot further south
deeper, deeper will they dig
to show a new form of life
with the first green on a dying twig
summer then melts to winter
with all the collective changes they will bring
floating just as leaves fell brightly in fall
like how new surprises were found out in spring
there will be a twinkling in late December
as what blankets me in snow
yes, there you be again for me
in an evergreen, an angel and in mistletoe

helen,
Let's celebrate that Anniversary! And this poem is a great start for that. I'm so happy you are here!

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.
