Reflections of the Soul: Poetry

Four Seasons

“Four Seasons”

Sakura blossoms cov'ring the environment

Bring forth a beautiful cool spring temperament

Like the harmony of the placid crystal lake

That glitters rythmically upon the sun's wake.

Giant verdant vegetable stalks cover my face

And hides me from the sun and from all the heat's trace

Along with fields of pompous xanthous sunflowers

Dancing with swarms of butterflies each passing hour.

Maple leaves falling onto the tangerine ground

Produce some tender soft yet distinct rustling sounds

That brings with it some traces of the north wind

Blowing past the clouds and then across the sun's sheen.

Not long until the snow arrives in a hurry

That later covers all things and makes me worry,

But it doesn't bother my mood's reasons

For enjoying the reoccurring four seasons.
