Seasons

Seasons


The nights seem longer, testament,
To summer’s toil, her seeds are spent

The blue moon grants us one more chance,
To thank the earth for sustenance

And dreams of winter’s thoughtful peace,
Beside the fire’s warm release

Of memories gained and stacked like wood,
Beside the hearth where hearts have stood

‘till spring again, when waters free,
To bless the earth from sea to sea

Jimmy, may I say, how terrible mature your work's become ... I did not think this possible with perfection ... you have here another song that will be sung when we are gone ... it is an immortal

James, wonderful way to express the sounds of change. A beautiful and new moon awaits the stillness of the cold nights to come. Much soon after I wait for the new flowers to bloom, with the nourishment of what will flow once there is no more snow. Enjoyed the wonderful sounds & images of nature and her season change,..p.d.
