The Seasons Of Our Lives

spring so beautiful
bringing new life
into this world
new growth
walking and talking
are adventures in themselves

summer then arrives
in wonder and glory
and the adventure grows
through our play
and school years
we learn to become
social beings
forming friendships
that will help carry us
through our lives

autumn is much more
than a time of work
true, we plant
nurture and harvest
families of our own
yet all its beauty
provides us with visuals
that we may enjoy
throughout our days
our memories

winter brings with it
a hard earned time of rest
a time of renewal
of the earth
but also
for our spirits
a time of reflection
upon all that has brought us
to who we've become
a time to sit back
relax and enjoy
all that we have worked towards

though the numbers of
days, weeks and years
may differ
the seasons of life
are shown us
in each passing year
