Seasons of You
Selina Dai Spring brings new beginnings. Flowers bloom, Trees fill blue skies with green, Rain gently pitter-patters on my roof. Spring brings new beginnings. We meet for the first time, exchange awkward “hellos,” And smile awkward smiles. Summer brings brightness. The sun beams, Birds chirp, And the sky is cloudless. Summer brings brightness. We meet for the fortieth time, exchange excited “hellos,” And smile excited smiles. Autumn brings coolness. The air is crisp, The ground is covered with orange, And the days are shorter. Autumn brings coolness. We meet for the hundredth time, And exchange relaxed “hellos,” And smile relaxed smiles. Winter brings coldness. White snow coats the ground, trees are leafless, And the animals are gone. Winter brings coldness. We meet for the thousandth time, And exchange annoyed “hellos,” And frown annoyed frowns. Then summer comes again, And I begin anew with a new person, Exchanging those same awkward smiles, Hiding the pain of winter, Longing for autumn. Autumn is the season of relaxation, There’s no need to force a smile, Or constantly talk. Autumn is the season of trust, Where we show our true colors, And we tell secrets. Autumn is too short, And too bittersweet.
