Dear Subscriber:
Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of
view. The theme for this week is Season’s Greetings.
I welcome comments on my poems at http://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com

A Season’s Greetings poem about how the seasons shape one’s
inner life:
Seasons sing with unrelenting
passion,
Each delighted utterly to be.
All are beautiful in their own
fashion,
Singing songs that shape the way
we see.
Oceans dance to music not their
own,
Needing moon and wind to shape
their will,
‘Mid mind and act a choice, but
not alone,
Shifted by the shore, yet dancing
still.
Grace comes from without and from
within,
Receding and then turning back,
like tides,
Enduring as desire, as faith, as
whim,
Enduring where one’s sense of
life abides.
The seasons come and go, the
rhythm of
Imagination, longing, will, and
love.
Nor can one be whole except as
part,
Giving voice to a collective art,
Singing, singing to a common
heart.
