Through solstice of cycles, time's pageant greets a year with springtime quilting a floral crochet, meandering on a lattice of verdant woodlands as my Taurus-essence radiates in dazzling splendor... until in a raw flush, August blazes to flame a mantle of summer's raw passion; red as jeweled moonlight brushing torrid flesh in love, in a heat varnished by undulating sea-waves through a sweetened curl of a kiss. Gently, the breeze transforms into minty froth reflecting the crisp strains of autumnal glow, when fabric of trees reverses its pattern from cerise to pale tangerine settling on lane of reflection, of contentment: and night tucks a shawl of yin and yan quietude, as if moments rise and accept the slow exposure from winter's imperial reign: flakes drifting in a dance of mild rainstorm and glistened hail, while my heart awaits Yule's birthing... a circle of life's seasons embracing the wonder of my world. ----------- 4/08/216 Seasons Contest of Shadow Hamilton
