It is the nature of remembrance.

Seasons yield to a continuation of what is
now...and what is simply bound to
be.

There is no clinging to the fruits of
yesterdays fall.

Winter comes to everything.

And everything comes to a new
born spring.

It is the whole of our delight.

With never a moment spared to
doubt -

We turn towards the cold.

It is winter now...and all is right
in our world.

Indeed time and the seasons move on, no matter our wish to stay a minute longer or quickly pass one by.  Beautiful poem, as always.

this was such a brilliant write, and so true.
seasons come and seasons go, no matter
how much we try to hold onto them

Oh my dear...

A love song of a different order? But...still so magical and true.  Your eyes perceive those things that are not apparent to most of us.  Thank you for sharing your insight.

Love and Light...jc

This I know as Truth...we are all Beings of Light.

all is right in our world

Every moment has its own charm, even if we move on sadly sometimes, there is the promise of a new Spring ...

... being in the now, where we are meant to be ...

Beautiful!

I love you. Margherita

Everything has a season; everything lives and dies; everything is reborn anew... nothing lasts forever, yet nothing truly dies.

So embrace the cold; it is here now... and remember it when the warmth of spring returns... and appreciate spring even more, with the memory of winter lingering still.
When it is hot, you long for the crisp coolness of winter's kiss upon your face.  When it is cold, you dream of the soft caress of the sun on skin.  Without this longing, you can't truly appreciate what you have.

Beautiful winter song... wise and profound words.  Thank you for sharing such a delicately powerful poem.

I love you... beyond words.

Eric your beautiful words make the winter much warmer.

    In the midst of winter..
I found there lives within me,
    an invincible summer.
