when did blossoms
lose their bloom
maiden's blush
grow grey
summer days stand
fev'rish hot
strangling breath
each day
then there's autumn's
silent stealth
musty mold
buffet
winter's gift of
blessed rest
breaks its vow
to stray
yet there's always
quick'ning times
brought to clear
the way
snippets of some
freshened breeze
beauteous life's
bouquet
