Spring/Fall

Poetic is my nature as I see things in not so cut and dry ways. The spring starts as an awakening as buds start to appear and soon blossom into leaves. Flowers spring forth and show lovely displays of color and whispers of fragrance. In the busy scheme of things, the beauty of life goes unnoticed as it has become unimportant. As you spring forth, I fall away...tis a time of change. The colors that manifest are bold and beautiful and a far cry in color from what was. The smell in the air is different as you can smell what has fallen away...you can smell the change. Soon the snow and wisps of cold will be here and slumber will begin. Something in me wants this to be the last slumber of this vicious cycle we are in. It is hoped that when life is reborn again, it will awaken to the beauty of it all and life's true meaning. ~ Maggie ~ 9/29/07
