Out of Hibernation

The bear goes in hibernation
Unto a den to await the winter days
Coldness and darkness surrounding
How in these times is there much to ponder
Sitting in the quiteness to seek rest
Waiting patiently for that day
Could one see this 
The warm spring sunny day 
Shines a new light unto his den
That brings life to this bear to awaken
How the bear must embrace
And soak in the warm sun on his nose
In the first steps of daylight 
As the heat begins to flow throughout
Making his body ready to sprint
He watches the smoke come from his nostrils 
Then takes it all in and looks around
For this is beautiful scenery among us
With, that nose he sniffles
Wow, this aroma is of heavenly
The paws grasp the ground in eagerness
He is ready to enjoy this newfound life

I absolutely loved reading this, the depth of your lines and how descriptively and vividly you’ve painted imagery here is truly impressive and i especially loved the way you’ve delivered your thoughts in such a creative manner. Especially “ How in these times is there much to ponder Sitting in the quiteness to seek rest” somehow resonates and hit’s deep . Sometimes it takes a minute to awaken and rise to see and appreciate all that around , see little things from a soulful light. Pleasure readin

Oh my, what a lovely write this is! I absolutely adore these imageries that you've artistically created about hibernation and how the bear awaits to feel the sunlight melting in his aura.. This poem gives me a sense of soothing vibe which delicately swirls when we are given a quality time to reflect upon ourselves and enlighten our conscience. A deep write..pleasure reading this!

After hibernation, with the touch of the golden rays of God, the flaming sun, like a bear, we will spring out from our hollows to get washed in light and see the beauty of our soul's spring and inhale the heavenly fragrance all around us. Beautiful analogy, dear Stephan. Wish you and your family a Merry Christmas.
