Seasons of Love

I've always been fascinated with beginnings, endings, cycles.

I could taste the reasons 
in the flavor of seasons. 
You ran through me 
like ice in Spring. 

I was the lone mountain 
watching a flowing fountain. 
Thirsty for love; 
you made me sing. 

Tangled up, two souls 
sometimes make two holes 
aching when cut 
where we did cling. 

Feeling your heart still, 
the healed scars fill 
the cold hollow 
Winter will bring.

Thank you very much Claire :)

To taste the seasons, a good thought . I love the line ' you ran through me like ice in Spring'
This is a very beautiful poem of love between two souls who seem to complete each other.
I truly enjoyed your poem.

From the title itself, I was already hooked up to read. And when I did read it, well, I have no regrets!

[Mockingbird]

brings a sense of serenity and healing. great job!

[Brianna Brie]

Mark, this is so refreshingly original. You have taken a subject that is written time and again and breathed life into it. "Winter will bring" these words are perfect in timing as fall is upon us and a long, cold winter approaches. Well done!

[Mark]

Thank you I got the idea while driving to match the four seasons to a relationship cycle. Thanks for reading :)

[EMMIE]

You had me at the first two lines lol. This is a really good poem to read while drinking tea, looking out the window and snuggling under a soft blanket. Great way to incorporate emotion with seasons in a poem.

[Mark]

Thank you for reading :)

This is great my friend - I loved it. I loved the imagery and the message portrayed here.

Sorry I have not read you lately, will get back to read you more often ASAP.

Your warm support is always welcome whenever you can find the time to read Mommy Noodle! I need to get over to your side as well...

Don't worry about my side Son, nothing good to read there, ha. And, always a pleasure!

[Mark]

you are too modest. I love your work!!!

[s y e]

Ha, you know me too well. ;-P jokes. Thanks my friend, I love yours too!

[Blue Ivory]

Love the imagery and symbolism...I like the effect highlighting your lines has on the eyes. Yes, patterns are indeed an interesting thing to observe. You get so hooked once you think you're figuring it all out, you make it your goal to break the chain...The contrast in the 4th line,

Thank you for the great comments. I wrote this awhile ago and it's one of my favorites.

[Jack...]

Mark, this is so cool. I love the rhyme scheme in this and the message, hard hitting but perfectly done. Nice one.

[Mark]

Thank you Jack, I am glad you liked.
