A Change of the Seasons

Prompt: How do you personally change with the seasons or how do you see others around you change (summer, fall, winter, and spring)?

As the seasons change, so do we,

Transforming with the land and sea.

In spring, we blossom and renew,

Our hearts and minds are refreshed anew.

The air is warm, the flowers bloom,

The world awakens from its gloom.

Our spirits lift with each new day,

Hope and joy light up our way.

Summer comes, and with it, heat,

We seek shade and cool retreats.

We stretch our limbs and take a breath,

And bask in nature's gentle caress.

The fall arrives with bright colors,

The leaves are ablaze with golden light.

We harvest crops and gather in,

And feel the change that comes within.

Winter comes, and with it, snow,

A quiet peace begins to grow.

We hibernate and wait for spring,

And dream of all the joys it brings.

And so we change with every season,

Our lives are a testament to reason.

For though the world may shift and turn,

Our hearts and souls will always yearn.
