Seasons

-------Seasons-------

An autumn rose 

     placed her seeds 

          upon my chest,

where Winter took them

     like memories

          into the earth,

to sprout again come Spring.

And leaves to rise 

     to shade 

          the herbs below,

when the light is right in Summer.

Fruit 

     and Fall 

          again 

the seeds;

the righteous seeds,

of a never 

     dying 

          love.
