Seasons Coming and Going

Everyday and everynight
babies begin their lives
and people are living
and others are dying
and we don't think
that much about
those that are dying
until its someone
we love and care for
and then
we come to realize
how fragile this life is,
when we lose
someone we love
we understand
that upon this earth
life is no more
than a season.

JamesM - Ain't it the truth! Best we enjoy the now seasons of our lives before that old permanent cold sets in and there is no cure for its future frost. That was heavy duty poetics James and I loved it. Namyh

So very true, some long and done short but each one passing always...

A ribbon at a time..." - Emily Dickinson
