Let Yor Soul Live

Rejoice in your very being......

The winds abate with the rising of the sun

The world is refreshed .. and renewed

Spring is close by … but a single blast of Winter remains

We are lulled into a false sense of calm

The bite of frozen rain and sleet will still strike at our faces..
As the shards of ice fall one more time …

A reminder that they will return..

But in this glorious sunlight … the flowers glisten with the raindrops

Smiling at the sun ..and reflecting its glory …

Willing the Spring to sing its song of new birth..

To reaffirm its joy and growth in a myriad of colours ..

Enlightening our minds and our souls..

Reminding us of greater beings and forces in the universe..

We are but droplets of life in an ocean of space

Bringing joy and comfort to some and frustration to others

We cannot be all things to all men .. we are unique..

Our minds mix and swim together but the inner psyche is ours alone

Only we know the depths and the intricacies..

The love and the hope .. the darkness of despair

But through it all we must see the brightness of the Spring

Its glory and its desire for the future …

The Summer beckons on the horizon .. with laughter and tears..

Experiences yet to come … the morning sunrise .. the golden dew

A sparkling spring that gurgles through the Glen ..

Bringing freshness and a clarity of thought that the sounds of nature nurture

Walking through the trees as the Summer breeze sings through the leaves

The softness of the moss underfoot and the sunlight chasing the leaves

All beauty and kaleidoscopic majesty..

Mixed with our emotions .. felt in our hearts..

Rejoice in the world .. let your soul live again ….

I like this one as you capture the mood with full on sustained force. This seems to be your outlook and you carry if off well here. There is also power in the optimism you conjour up and it would take a desperate melancholy not to be moved by the way you like our emotions in with nature and the seasons.
