“and the walls bore witness to all that withered
the mind lists like a house in winter.”
|
No warmth could warm him, no wintry weather chill him, no sadness touch him.
|
Flowers fade and decay through wintry hours- waiting for rebirth.

There are having flowers in Spring, breezes in Summer, moon in Autumn, snows in Winter. If there is nothing worrying over you, it will be the best seasons at all times.

The nature of Nature
is bitter survival,
from Winter’s bleak fury
till Spring’s brief revival.
The weak implore Fate;
bold men ravish, dishevel her ...
till both are cut down
by mere ticks of the Leveler.

With every wearying year
the weight of the winter grows,
and while the schoolgirl outgrows
her clothes,
the widow disappears
in hers.

The flash of a firefly.
The breath of a winter buffalo.
The shadow scooting across the grass that vanishes with sunset.

Winter awakens all my care
as leafless trees grow bare.
For now my sighs are fraught
whenever it enters my thought:
regarding this world's joy,
how everything comes to naught.
