Spring
Youth--fresh flowers and fun
Ice melting from the firmaments of the year
And fresh-faced, I wander forth
Fearing and daring
Frolicking in hope;
In new love
Summer
High in the sky, the sun dries my eyes
Mourning is over, and has yet scarcely begun
Dewdrops fall from my eyes, leaving smiles
Formed from castles of mist
I see things, not there
Autumn
Leaves crackle and crunch
Colors cascade
Coolness descends
Yet some days of calidity remain
And I realize
Appearances aren’t always
What they seem
Winter
Ice
Encases
Everything.
My heart, so warm a moment ago
Grows cold, knowing you never cared
I wait for you
For spring
For hope of your love
To come again
But darkness, night, cold, ice
Is all that I find.
Goodbye, my love.
