Winter to summer |

Winter’s sleeping death will pass like birds in flight migrating to a warmer place to review its past mistakes but in the time of ice and snow no blade of grass will stir, no thunder split the air, nor water flood the lakes. September heralds spring when birds return again and when gardens of hope renew eternal vows but new flowers always grow as if they already know they’re born anew into a world not ever seen before. And fragile roots in soil abused need courage to sustain their joy and optimism as they bow to nature’s laws but in the law of seasons love repeats its endless call and shows us passion’s glory in vibrant coloured fields. Spring to summer glory, autumn, winter, then again, turns within the wheel of a life that we perceive but true eternal love which never ceases or begins escapes attention of a mind that really can’t believe. I believe and always will for truth lives deep inside waiting quiet and silent through life’s cold winter years but when I welcome spring and summer says it’s here, my spirit dances with the stars in God’s own atmosphere!

Thanks to all for your comments. Very much appreciated. We're into summer here now with rain, thunder and lightening, but that will pass and we'll just be left with the relentless sun. Helen |
