hope in winter It is cold.The grass is frozen .Tortured into stark shapes.The fallen leaves , once loose and wanton,lie still.Nothing moves.Even my breath hangs as if reluctant to leave my body. No birds sing. The sun is pale and weak.To weak to move the fog that hangs over the earth Only hope is alive. Spring will come again I know it Like love It has its season and will come again arthur |

And love also has its own seasons as well. Good work here. I really like the imagery, just glad I'm not having to endure that cold. LOL! Michael Michael Auguste~ |

*sigh* yes......I guess there is always hope for love to have its season again. Your words are filled with hope, my friend. **big hugs** Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |
