Gracious Change

Haiku #12,024-12,028


I welcome winter
with virgin clean fields of white
crisp air, well dressed nights

Spring's voice too, will sing
with nature's scent wakening
be done spring cleaning

Summer will slip in
my shoulders bare as I jog
through drizzle's warm breeze

Fall makes a comeback
I am awed by the clearing
a year laced with zing.
