Embrace the Wind

Embrace the wind of season's time
That spreads the seed of life
It sweeps the fruit of tree and vine
That rests in winter ice

Be welcoming to frigid storm
That harbors things unseen
For snows someday will be the warm
And wet of springtime green

Hold dear each moment meant to be
Let rain fall into streams
And let the hull of sorrow’s seed
Bear roots of joyous dreams

Hopeful . . .

Liz I just loved this. How well I know that the winter's freeze and water brings forth such beauty in the Spring and Summer.

However, this cold spell we're stuck in is a bit much for one and all.

Hugs and keep warm dear lady ... Marti

Most of us go to our grave
