Seasoned Thoughts

To lose one's attention in the spell of a multi- hued water lily. 
Ignoring caresses from ever patient Breeze 
As memories of Winter's grasping clutch in early Spring 
Return on this late Summer's day to tease 
And yet the instant intense beauty of the flower 
Reminds one of the coming painted Fall 
With the Impressionistic pixel count of leaves 
To savor and to wander in with ease 
Ignoring still caresses from ever patient Breeze
