There is no bright sunshine today <br />it’s overcast the skies are grey. <br />A chill wind blows. <br /> <br />The harvest safely gathered in <br /> and stored away in box and bin. <br /> For no one knows. <br /> <br />How long it is until spring <br /> returns to renew everything <br />Which lives and grows. <br /> <br /> We will survive I am quite sure <br /> but until then we must endure <br />The winter snows. <br /> <br />Now Mother Nature does her best, <br />tries to ensure her children rest. <br /> Because she knows <br /> <br />With springs return life starts anew. <br />Each living thing knows what to do <br />to thrive and grow... <br /> <br />The seasons come, the seasons go. <br /> Since time began it has been so <br /> that’s all we know. <br /> <br />11-Nov-08<br /><br />ivor or ivor.e hogg<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/in-waiting-for-m-lady-fay/
