SEASONS
Each season speaks a language
all its own,
and every season wears a
different dress.
While Autumn cloaks herself in
amber tone,
bare Winter's gown is laced in
quietness.
Refreshing as a soft pastel
bouquet,
florescent Spring peeps out in
tender green,
while luscious Summer's decked
in full array
and brazenly explodes upon the
scene.
Spring whispers with a voice as
sweet as youth,
while Summer shouts with hale
and hardy breath;
tired Autumn sighs with wisdom
and with truth,
while Winter's hush is
tantamount to death.
All seasons have a voice that is
unique,
but God alone announces when
they speak.
