Every Season Has a Reason

 Every Season Has a Reason

Winter sleeps in his cold blanket of snow.

And the frosty old man seems to have put an end to all that is green.

But Spring awakens life in the seeds hiding in the warming Earth.

With Summer’s warm sun and rain, green life returns everywhere.

And Autumn reaps fruitful abundance, while its seeds lay ready to renew life again.

Every season has a reason, those of people, too.

And the seasons say that life springs eternal.

Those of us in the winter of our lives know that the end will come,

but that life goes on in the children and grandchildren of the world,

those in the spring and summer of their lives.

Life goes on.
