Auburn Spring

The beautiful reverse of the garden of Eden's curse. A Godly reminder in every soulful verse. Another dieing season, so that we may live. And be restored unto ourselves when we learn to forgive. The bitter cold that we must bare when winter has it's way. Slowly comes upon this world in every Autumn day. And deep within it's vibrant death. Mother Earth in all it's splender, takes away our breath. From within these solemn walls. We close the door as the temperature falls. As we begin our journey inside these halls. Awaiting our rebirth when Spring time calls. White is black and black is white, the two seasons are singing. Mirrored in eachothers negative, we hear the truth keep ringing. To give us hope and help us cope so we never stop trying. This sweet and bitter gift from God in his season of dieing.
