Ode To Winter's End

For only there is one life’s joy As the man, woman, girl and boy Waiting for winter’s end and summer’s ploy. The birds are singing On wet branches swinging Relishing winter’s end with elated singing. From sky down to earth Life holding to its mirth Holding on to winters birth. Down through our hearts Winter’s end charts Bringing sorrow in parts. For life itself must stay Winter end’s comes and go away Children waiting for snow to play. We must surely abide As summer starts all is dried While Autumn becomes winter’s bride. When ugliness comes to surface The cold weather of winter is a great service For warmth in the hearts resurface. Love reaching us rapidly Curing our feelings from malady Enjoying winter’s cosiness madly.
