Internal Seasons
It's autumn in the woods
life fades in brilliant colors
the dreams of spring
it's hope and promises
all are spent in hurried summer
in brilliant reds
rust the dreaming leaves
limply fading on gray branches
hope sleeps in hibernation
until springtime comes again
sleep now life, endure the cold
Until springtime comes again
