Seasons of Me

Spring still knows me
Out, about and carefree,
Wandering a flower bed
Nurturing the blooms ahead 

Summer does not see
Very much of me,
Hiding behind the shades
Until the heat fades

Autumn knows me well
Standing where leaves fell,
Kicking them all around 
Wherever I am found

Winter, too, will see
Little more of me,
Crunching on icy flakes
A million smiles makes.

It is sweet and clean. A beautiful testament to the natural seasons of the human heart. (fav) Login to Reply Kelly Deschler Date: 4/14/2024 11:12:00 AM Thank you for the kind words and the fav...

Spring's carefree spirit blooming with your touch, retreating from summer's heat, chasing autumn leaves, and finding joy in winter's crunch—you paint a heartfelt portrait of nature's embrace.
