Cajoles Us
Life cajoles us
with her carefree times
her sunny warmth
her long light days of summer
shining her flowered colors
her sweet seductive scents,
When always
just beneath her surface
hides the dark
the blanket of long nights
the frozen
the desert frost
of bitter winter.
Sometimes a love
of one so dear to heart
can mirror the same unsettling
deceive-deceptive allusion
that just beneath the glow
lurks
the cold good-bye.
