To everything, there is a season.


Poem Artwork


Winter comes with an ashen hue, when ice replaces the morning dew.


When temperatures drop, and the sun's shine is veiled, and dim,


the landscape, withered, and bare, when bird's songs
are few.


Then snow flakes fall, and all is hushed, as what was,
disappears.


It covers all, shapes anew, and sparkles in the sun, 


a glistening blanket of pure white, and silence fills,
 one's ears.
 


With barren boughs, the trees seem dead, but, for,
the evergreens


nothing is as summer was, it's like a different place


but death is an illusion, for, their's life
we cannot see.



A dormant time in nature, to refresh and grow,
new roots


when water takes the nutrients down,like, no other season can


the leaves of fall decompose, and in the spring will,feed the,newborn, shoots


 


With all of nature, God has a plan, the seasons,
come and go,


In, spring, and  summer, nature's at it's prime
in autumn, leaves must fall


Winter is a time to rest for some, for others a time to die


so seeds, shrubs, trees and, all, can, be reborn, and once again,
His Majesty, show. 


 


 


There is an appointed time for everything. And there is a time for every event, under heaven. Eccl 3:1

Oh, this is fantastic, Rock! A beautiful read..

I wish we could bring Victor to the States...but imagine, being in Malta where Apostle Paul was!

I could smell the cold fresh air in this one...and see the evergreens' boughs heavy with snow......I love the purity of winter.
And I thank you for this beauty of a write, Brother!

Love&Hugs, Rho/Sis

So true. Beautiful description which I wish I could appreciate more. Here in Malta, we get no snow, only storms like the one that brought the apostle Paul to Malta (see last chapters of the Acts of the Apostles). Sometimes I wish I could travel in winter to see the snow falling. Victor
