THE HOPE OF SPRING




Silver threads that weave among the brown,
Show the sign that summer’s gone,
And the ruts left by the storms…
Seen now … in the furrowed frown.

Slower now the gait that ran
When spring was here and spirit free,
But it is now approaching winter…
This season sees’ the bent down tree.

Memories linger of birds that left,
But seeing now an empty nest,
Hearing still the songs that rang,
Throughout the summer when life was best.

When silver threads turn to white,
And the final season comes’ too fast...
Then is found the hope of spring,
While letting go the seasons past.
