Seasons of LoveA Poem by Shayne PlunkThe wind blows through the colorful flowers, Making them sway in the bright sun of summer. I stand still, Paralyzed by amazement and passion. The sun shines down, Making your hair shine beautifully. My life is complete As I hold you tightly in my arms. Your words echo in my ears, "I love you, my dear. I will always be with you." I hear the birds chirping above, As I take your hand and walk away. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Leaves drift down from the tall trees, Giving the land a coat of fall leaves. I stand in amazement, Struck by your beauty. The wind blows the leaves, Creating a whirlwind near your form. My life seems complete, As we walk onward to our eternity. Your words echo in my ears, "I love you now, and I will love you forever.' I see you smile, As I kiss your lips gently. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Blood splatters onto the snow, Tainting the pure white of winter. I stand in mourning, Frozen in fear and sorrow. The snow falls to the ground, Layering over your unmoving body. My knees collapse from under me As tears sting my eyes. Your words echo in my ears, "Remember: Whatever happens, I am with you still." I hear their footsteps crunching in the snow, And I raise to my feet and stumble away. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ New flowers stretch up from the ground, Painting the world in a beautiful colors. I stand, heart swelling from love, Marvelling at my lover. The scent of the flowers intermingles with the gentle breeze, Ruffling your hair as it passes. My life is mine again, As my love and I were brought back together. Your last words echo in my ears, " I love you. I was with you always." I kiss your lips softly, As take your hand and walk away.
