Seasons

Coping with sadness

There are times ...
When all that you want to see
Are things I'm not meant to be

There are days ...
When all that you want to do
Are things that aren't meant for you

There are seasons to plant
and there'll be seasons to reap
There'll be a moment for me and for you

There are weeks...
That will make you feel bleak
In those moments, its Him you'll seek

There are years
That will be wrapped with fears
But he'll be there to wipe your tears

There are reasons to live
and there'll be seasons to die
Remember; He died for you and I

This is one of those poems where you can tell that every line, every stanza, and even them all combined mean something. You added a lot more meaning so fast at the end and I like it. I like all of it. But the one thing that I'll review is the last stanza: I like how you put seasons for the second line instead of reason, because, although, he died for us it was for us to live not to die, he also told his followers that they too would go through tribulation. tyfs this is so wonderfully explained and expressed.

beautiful says i! our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ is all that and more isn't He!? I like the title .. it drew me .. i think your poem is Universal and very relatable .. we go through "stuff" .. every single one of us .. it we stop to listen .. to believe ... to trust .. we can get through the toughest of times and come out stronger of character .. keep writing Jorj! sure enjoyed the read

Well done Jorj Jie. I like your repetitive vibe in this poem. It gives a religious feeling that suits your subject. There are lots of nuggets of truth in these lines.
All the best,
