Seasons of Life

Flowers unseen float above the sky this day,
They have served their world with scent and beauty
Their petals wave goodbye and hello
To summer’s glory and sturdy hues
Of Marigolds, pansies, the profusion of blossom colors
That will give way to Fall’s red and gold power,
Before it, it, too crackles and dies in
Winter’s ice, 

But not in vain

As its life gives  birth to lovely fragile blooms anew,
Ordered grace-full by Love

Hello Sunlite, A very beautiful and wondrously-done free verse here on "Seasons of Life." The final two verses pull your whole theme together here. I really like the final words: "Ordered grace-full by Love." Superb Work!! Best Always, Gary
