A love in four seasons |
SEASONS OF LONELINESS In the winter of my mind , The leafless branches of my existence, Bend to the cold wind of self, and you are there , To be the fresh gentle snow, That falls upon my every thought, To cover the cold and dark ground of my life, With a soft white blanket of contentment, Blocking out the harsh and killing winds, of thought, That keep me frozen here..............Without you............. In spring, you are the sunshine, To let my mind be warm, and the beauty of your scent, And the flowers that your heart creates, Allow me to grow in ways , unthought of, But so clear, As clear as the deep blue of your eyes, And the clear spring sky,.......That follows me............. Into the summer of dreams , and rain, Where you protect me, from the heat of anger, The rain of tears, The thunder of a life in turmoil, Instead , you give to me endless days of summer breezes, And soft sunsets , To shining stars of nights with you, And the sky is full........I fall to sleep peacefully......... Autumn of the mind, is filled with color, The color of your eyes, of your hair, and your smile, I see in you the beauty of living, Not the coming of a cold winter of being alone, I find you are the pale blue light of a full moon, You stop the promise of darkness, And fill the days with the light of your love, Of your brightness.............And of spirit.............. The seasons of my life are filled with you, And make my mind look through the sadness, Away from the pain, And give to me a quiet knowing, That you are near me, And take from my heart, the thought of , The seasons of loneliness................Should you be gone............ dean evans 9-27-07 |
