Wrestling With Angels

The seeds of
love 
     once planted 
     grow wildly in
     the verdant forest
The battle for peace, however,
        continues throughout 
the year
         the cool winds 
of December
     caress you and free
you from worries
      When the land is covered 
in white
             warm arms will 
reach out for you
       Piercing eyes will
penetrate the depths 
      of your heart
      When the ground is
cold
      the seeds of love germinate
They'll greet the spring 
           with riotous colors
and gorgeous aroma
      The coldest winter 
       is seed - time
       for joy
If the truth be told
    we'll find our
way
      out of the darkness,
wrestle with angels 
urge them to join 
the dance
       the dance which brings 
joy and warmth to us
      while the world turns 
on it's axis
     receiving light from 
that nearest star
