Totally agree with you, Mr. Frost, The color green is being lost. Winter will still triumph over spring, Gold never fades; robins still sing. There is no time to rave or scold, Every moment is forever on hold. Flame isn't as visible over the day, There is a lot of smoke in the sky. Getting the message at last, The past must remain the past. Either this moment or never, Nothing, but God, is forever. Never will this predicant exist, Let your hopes move and twist. Which in the rubble didn't groan, He was led by a ring, as bemoan. Nothing of value ever lasts forever, To both my and Frost displeasure.

Congratulations Sotto on your well written winning poem. All worthless things vanish. God' breath of life continues in His creation with changing returning seasons, birth of beautiful babies. God is love and love is life eternal.

I think Spring will win for a time. Yet life goes on and Winter comes again, Great imagery. Best for a win.
