I believe I can learn something new every day if I just put my heart and mind to it. There is always an adventure ahead coming with the change of the seasons in my life.
Winter’s Season
With nothing special to do, I took a mid-afternoon winter walk, away from any buzzing, distracting talk.
I heard only the crunch of my feet across the leaf-ladened ground. That was the only sound.
Looking down, I observed the vibrance of browns and tans in darks and light, all glistening bright.
Raindrops hung upon the sea of leaves which covered the ground like thieves.
No dirt was found, no grass was seen. There was no longer any green.
Summer was past, and winter had ushered in with a mighty blast,
Leaving fall behind but not off my mind.
Seasons come and seasons go;
With winter, there are no yards to mow.
There are no gardens to hoe;
There are no leaves that glow;
The flowers do not grow.
With winter, time seems slow.
There may or may not be snow.
There are reasons for the seasons,
And always there is something new to see, learn, and know.
