Seasons of Harmony Pt4

Now with the branches so bare They don't have a care in the world The snow will keep them warm Everything and everyone slows down To count the snow flakes Howling winds in search of a mate But the animals have excepted their fate And don't argue with Mother Nature Just go back to sleep Go off to dream about spring Can't come fast enough Such pale and frail days White serenity falls delicately onto the ground Making a blanket of protection Gray days Fly away The sun wants nothing to do with the changes Darkness comes quicker with every hour The blue sky gets dyed with gray The birds go on vacation Even the children run away Not enough layers will take away the chills Go up your spine There's silence and stillness everywhere Can only hear the beating hearts of those around you Try and survive on such a small food supply Time to quiet the mind And deepen your soul The years come and gone With the blink of an eye Time fly's by Days are short And the nights are long and cold Find your companion to snuggle up by a roaring fire Go back to basics Winter cries out a melancholy tune The animals know what to do We as humans forget To busy fighting against it Let its arms wrap around you Now the cycles been complete Its time for along and healing rest Close your eyes And go to bed to dream of a fresh spring
