A new season has begun
The winters frost
Has stifled an ugly growth
The warmth of your words
And heart bringing a thaw
To the frozen tundra of my anger

The world seems different
No longer do I ponder
The unfairness of what was
Knowing that what was
Made what is
That who I am now
Is what you love

Spring comes early
To those lucky enough
To find a kindred soul
I feel the warmth
Of the sun as I turn my face
Towards you
And the heat of our love

Winter no longer exist

"if you won't let me fall for you
then you won't see the best that I would love to do for you"

Beautiful Susan...wonderful writing.

    In the midst of winter..
I found there lives within me,
    an invincible summer.

Great poem. I can easily see myslef being warmed by its words when im down

If my poems could talk they would mean more than the words

It is amazing that we can still find different words to describe the same feelings. Well done my dear

Made what is
That who I am now
Is what you love

That perspective is long in coming... but makes every step of the path worth it, doesn't it? *S*

Excellent write!!

I have always enjoyed the parallel usage
of seasons and love....they blend so well,
as does this piece...Thanx Susan.

I liked this alot...I also think the whole of S2 could be cut, and you would have a stronger poem.
Read it aloud w/o s2, nice.
