Napowrimo '10: Day 7 :: Seasons
It is the Springtime of our lives,
when we are born into this world.
New adventures, new places to see,
like a new flower coming unfurled.
It is the Summer of our lives,
having fun with all of our friends.
Meet new people, discover ourselves,
moments we never want to see end.
It is the Autumn of our lives,
when we settle into maturity.
Family, wife, and children,
make Summer fade to obscurity.
It is the Winter of our lives,
when we feel the most alone.
Our life has been and gone,
but our death we cannot postpone.
No matter the Season of our lives,
each day must be lived to the full.
Take nothing for granted, dear friend,
follow joy and love's insistent pull. Originally posted at Writerholic's Anonymous, my writing blog.
