SEASONS by Becky Hemsley

"SEASONS"
by Becky Hemsley 2022

We all have an autumn

A time to let go

Of things that are no longer

Helping us grow

A time to reveal

All the colours we cover

With sunshine and light

In the midst of our summer

A time when our souls

And our spirits prepare

To return to their roots

And to lay themselves bare

And as all our petals

And leaves begin falling,

Our breath becomes cooler,

Our nights start to draw in,

We realise our winter

Is heading this way

With cold that assumes control

Over our days

With dark that’s determined

To not let us win

To fight with the light

Hibernating within

And I know that it’s tough,

It’s exhausting and hard

To rally your spirit

And soul from the dark

But there’ll come a day

When your petals return,

Your days become warmer,

The darkness adjourns

So right now, you feel

Like your winter won’t leave

There’s ice getting caught

In your throat as you breathe

But when it feels so bleak

You want to give in

Hang in there, remember

We all have a spring
