The Seasons Change

Not so long ago I stood in the sun. Taking in the warmth and having some fun. The days were long and the sky so blue, The days were long yet I longed for you… The days grow shorter the warmth is gone, Leaves change colors winter won’t be long. Frost glitters in the sun and melts away, Things slowly fade that I wish could have stayed. The wind gets colder the skies grow dark, They rip through me sending a chill to my heart. I look to the sky and see the birds fly away Fall is gone and winter is on the way. The sky opens up and the snow begins to fall. It blankets the earth covering it all. Still I remember what buried below, I must wait until spring for it to show. The sun grows stronger the winter ices melt. As it touches my skin the warmth is felt. Birds return singing as if to rejoice, The rebirth of spring seems to be in their voice. As years fly by so many seasons and change As a new one comes, the last moves out of range. The seasons become like stages in life Some filled with beauty, others with strife. Spring becomes like when you begin, Summer is the times in the life that you win. Autumn is like when you start to grow old. Winter becomes tears frozen from cold.
