Seasons Reasoned The cool spring’s morn now wanes in love’s eclipse New green for eyes has come and then slips by Our summer’s passing in butterfly flips High blues and sun have thus hued the sky Now comes soon call that in august we lean To harvest mature fruits and lush berries Of tinctured reds, golds, which ripen our scene Before snow falls, that we all make merry Mead’s brew shall swell from vast harvests stored Smoked meats or pickled, all shall feed so well Thy fisher’s nets fill, they return to shore As winter’s harsh winds blow, sounding church bell Snow shall carpet, and thy footfall be hushed Till spring comes again, then winter be crushed ~*~ I'm still working on sonnets...suggestions, comments, ripe tomatoes appreciated....

You have captured all my favorite things about each season. There is nothing better then a "cool spring morn" and a "bitterly flips" brings big smiles to my face and heart. Fall and winter are my all time favorites of the year. "As winter's harsh winds blow, sounding church bell" I can feel and hear as I read it. Great write. Hugs, DozenRoses4UV |
