Season of Tears

She weeps
as the winds whip.
The weary woman waits,
wishing winter's wrath would weaken,
wondering when winsome weather might wake.
Then warm rains wipe her wintry wounds
as wisps of life weave tint.
Welcoming Spring,
she weeps.

Juliet Ligon Date: 1/19/2023 10:16:00 AM I like how "she weeps" has different meanings in the beginning and at the end, weeping with weariness vs. weeping with joy. Great job on weaving all the w's together into something that makes sense. Login to Reply FJ Thomas Date: 1/20/2023 10:27:00 AM Thank you Juliet. I'm glad you recognized the difference in emotion there. I have been trying to get things together for a short trip but I am hoping to be back on this afternoon :)
