Guardians of Nature

So soon the seasons come and go, a purpose for nature to advance
A time to grow and time to die, lessons learnt our duty to enhance.

I love the depth and beauty of this couplet, Harry. There are so many lessons in nature. Best wishes.

There is a time for everything ! Nature and seasons follow the calendar and man has to learn much from nature. A profound write in few words!

A very deep poem in such a few words. Great job. It does seem the lesson's we learn in the passing of the seasons speak deeply to growing older, even to the snow of winter, and the snowy white hair of the aged. I really love this.

Lovely poem, but as I grow older I am starting not to like these seasons! Lets freeze time! :)

A well intentioned couplet with a worth while message. Nice write, Harry.

we have stark warnings with global warming ,,, a few years back we had daffodils flowering on Christmas day - thankfully they flowered much later this year - but it is a worry. hugs Jan xx

Your muse delivered a smooth and deep couplet. I enjoyed the read. I haven't been on Soup much since June of last year and I missed playing poetry with you and others. I hope you are rollin' golden (oh the things I can't stop myself from saying and/or doing) ... CayCay
