I hear that song that we sang all summer long
We sweltered but got so very well along
That flavorful creamy ice
And oh that joyous joy ride
Just an axial tilt of the earth and my summer transformed
The beautiful green leaves started to turn brown
When you considered yourself wearing that invisible crown
Those solemn promises to live by
And oh those pearls of laughter from deep inside
Just a drip in temperature and autumn stopped by
We lived our summers but tripped our fall
And tough it is to smile through the winters squall
That pure white snow covered all over
And oh those tea and fritters that we used to wolf down
Just went aloof when the sun hid under the moon
Melodies of robins and the return of monarch butterflies
How they smell the cut grass and come to claim their prize
That elliptical drift
And oh now that drastic shift
I just remember that song that we sang all summer long.

SeaSons of Soul Winter’s
Spring Summer’s Fall
Oh How We
All Dance
And Sing
Through All
Weathers
Of Life
We Feel Sense
And Come to Know to Do…
Know to Do Know To Do Oh
Happy are the Waves That Interplay
With Shores As One Ocean Earth Water Whole…
Where All of Life is Sunrise Sunset at the Beach
With Kind Smiles Dancing Singing Life is Play
And Sunshine Life
Moonlit
Dreams
Shores Lit
Up With Diatom Stars
Space Reflecting Seas
Shores Reflecting Star Eyes
That Really Aren’t Separated From Ocean Whole
Oh Yes Where Does it Go the Great Play of Life With no Know…
I’ve Seen it Young as Old Holding Hands Coming into
Stores With Big Warm
Smiles For They’ve Lost
‘The Know’ for now
At Least
As Warm
Hands Hold
Oh The Spring of
February Now When
Warmth Still Dances Sings Plays
Smiles Dear Samreen i Remember
A Cold Supervisor From Work Reaching
The Ripe Old Age of 50 about 47 Close to
4 Years Less than Katrina Now Reaching 51
And His Warm Wife of Less than
47 All Her Beauty Exhausted
Raising Two Children
He Found a
Younger Flower
At Work She Brought
Him Flowers At Work For His
Birthday i remember Him casually
Say His Mother Died Oh How Beautiful
it is to Still Be Gifted With A heART This Much
Life Teaches me is anything else Really Important
True There’s Food and Shelter And Amazing Technologies to
Help Others
Yet There’s
Love
And Play
For Love Now
A Real Testament
Is Never Losing Spring Within…
Those Warm Smiles And Hands
The Old Couple Who Realizes with
No Doubt What’s First and Last in Real Meaning of Breath at all First Again…
My Years Say i am So Old Now My Soul Simply Plays as Waves
On A Beach…
Indeed My
Wife is Still Those Waves…
SMiles The Way i See it Now
For Who Comes Goes and Stays
Treat Old Friends as New Friends
Treat New Friends As Old Friends Be Love
Indeed Eternal
Spring
of Sunshine Soul Now
Is It A Degree An Award a Job for Pay
Not Really Just A Smile Given And Shared Free
True Waves Shores Always Changing Stay FRiEnDS THiS WaY…
Smiles Samreen For 13 Years Katrina Worked at A Newspaper
Somedays Working 23 Hours Straight i Worked All Weekends
All Holidays And It’s True i had Dreams Remembering
That She Even
Existed
This is what
The Winter
Of Our Spring Will Do too
Bringing the Season Back
is Life is Eternal Spring of Love Now
Indeed a Golden Age Where Winter is Spring
Just the Opposite of A Dead Age Where Spring is Winter…
Sadly Half the Folks Age 18 Through 34 have no one to
Experience Any Season At all Together And A Quarter Have no Friends…
So How
Advanced
Are We Becoming
Nothing Really of Soul At All…
Shall i Dance And Sing to Help
‘Them’ Remember in a word
Yes…:)
For i Have
Seen Winter in Spring…
And Yes No Seasons at all…then…
Yet Now is Forever Just one Breath of Love..:)
