Seasons

Seasons of life,
warmth of summer,
aromas of spring,
new life, new hope,
refreshment, renewal,
autumn colours,
leaves falling,
pinks, reds, purple,
brown, imprints,
coolness of winter,
the breeze wrapping itself
memories of life,
imprinted in the snow,
journeys, stories,
written in to
the seasons of life.

Fragile

Fragile,
delicate, weak,
spiralling emotions,
splinters, glass,
hurt, pain, hands holding,
fading colours,
pastel memories,
scents, aromas,
reaching grasping
breathless, shadows,
falling, cool, gentle,
fragile.
