A Change of Season
The fall is a deeper shade
of green, tempests come and
go. An hour, a day, they
pass so easily when I
think of you. A bright light
from some Northern source
shines the way to dawn.
If it had always been so
simple, would we still have
seen the truth?
A gift wrapped in tight satin
is like a promise spoken on
a gentle breeze.
The trust it takes to get to this.
Should it be believed?
A prayer unanswered, unasked for
so long.
And then time slips by and yet again
the storm has come. But this time
is different, this time is more real.
The leaves have turned a different shade.
We have moved on again.
