The Time Between the Seasons
Time for love; time for marriage; time for rear and care;
Time for work; time for rest; time for concerns to share;
Time betwixt seasons have stories many to tell,
To whom? Of what? Is it about heaven or hell...?
Amidst all seasons the spring everyone does love,
She, but, comes and goes fast; like magic from above;
Autumn empties leaves and twigs; leaves nature naked;
Enters summer to leave our energies wasted...!
Time betwixt has its secrets; like sea-tide and sand;
Stretching emptiness in and out like rubber-band;
Hearts held; minds shared; times expire like fast foaming waves,
Who to care? How to do? On whose count worry saves...?
Life is between sea and shore I thought; Am I right?
How and what about fight between each day and night?
Routes that seem straight, turn crooked all-of-a-sudden,
Is making new paths possible? Worries flood in...!
I have bought a boat; I am not a fisherman;
How should I land it in the sea? I have no clan;
Why should I do so? This is the season between;
Life and death happen between; This is seldom seen...!
