These winter months are so bitter and cold,
Nipping and biting any exposed skin,
The rough and torrent winds.
It makes you appreciate the gentle rain of spring,
Daintily tapping your windows,
Dripping water to the dead flowers
from the past season,
And summer’s unforgiving heat
And sun-kissed tan lines while
Beads of sweat form across your worry lines,
Or autumn’s graceful descent of the leaves,
And painting the world in hues of reds,
Slowly reminding us that the year is at an end,
And birthing a new one ahead.
