Autumn arrived years ago...still here.
So many changes during the season
Many more to come before the chill
Before Winter sets in on tired bones.

Moments of Spring and Summer
flitting in to warm the coolness
Rustling the leaves and the soul.
Cherished Summers of moments

Will I be a more wise man from
the flitting seasonal changes.
Will the heart hold the warmth
and never feel the chill of winter.

I think so...I believe it will endure
For I have many warm memories
Memories which melt the ice on skin
and put a fire in the veins of...

A Much wiser man.

Thank You for the Springs and Summers

You know...

(smiles) This is sooooooo beautifully mesmerizing, sweet friend, I too think if we can harvest our memories from the fallows of before and hold them every autumn and winter day, we can find these springs and summers all our lives! (big hugggsssss) This is excellent, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Barry, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
