Changes

Love, how can it be defined?
So many different kinds.
An acquantance,
A family member,
one who has come and gone,
A long, lost, love,
love unconditional from the spirits above,
A relationship of a few years,
or till death do us part,
or the hardest of all,
one that spans the millenium's of time.

So many phase's of love,
how can we possibly define?

Human's we are,
and in this world to be,
do we not follow the 4 season's?
do we not confine it to the Earthly seasons,
that so quickly come and go?

It alway's starts with the tender blossoms of spring.
then it flourishes with the thunderstorms,
passionate and wild,
to grow into the sensuous heat of summer.

With nurturing care,
we harvest the fruits of desire,
and enjoy Autumn's diversity of colors.

The changes grand they should be,
yet with the changes,
comes a cold chill.
The winter's deep chill,
gives us clarity to see deeper,
with the eyes of november,
that harbor the resentment of change.

Then the snows come,
to blanket the love with a cold heart,
and love becomes frosted,
like the trees of December.

Over love is,
like the years of the seasons,
this love too must pass.

Many human eyes,
they can not see,
that spring is around the corner once again.
Waiting to bring forth,
the forgiveness of winter's chill,
and warm the buds of springs passions,
to once again blossom into summer's sensuous heat.

No matter what your love,
let it go,
and let the wind take it into her arms,
let her help you to deal with it.
she is always there for you,
to help you cope,
open up your heart to her,
let Mother Nature give you hope.

[Coyote Poetry]

Wisdom in your words. A beautiful poem. Love and kindness will be left of us in the end. Better to walk easy and love being alive. A excellent poem.

incredibly insightful, beautifully written - such phrases I look on with envious eyes (wishing I had thought of them first) I love "eyes of november" "love becomes frosted" and the personification of the wind at the end. Romantic, real, honest and powerful. You should be very proud of this piece - into my favorites it goes.
