Seasons of My Life

Seasons of my life

In the autumn of my life ti's springtime I recall
when the pregnancy of winter gives birth to flora all

colour hue and freshness as only sol may rise
seeds faithfully long trusted yield fruit in blush surprise

bulbs beget their flowers in colours hot and cold
while rose buds blossom gently their fragrance sweetly bold

candied dew upon their petals reflects the morning sun
which is busy lifting blankets of mist where rivers run

creation in profusion life's spectrum how it glows
in a sea of waving splendour earths bounty ebbs and flows

in the winter of my years let springtime be my bed
lay me neath the flora so my spirit ne'er be dead
