Winter: déjà vu, the snow
falls, the ground freezes,
the earth becomes sullen,
silent nights, slippery roads,
the inner longing for spring.
Spring: déjà
vu, the leaves
bud, becoming leaves,
becoming background, birds
find their way back to our
backyards, summer's coming.
Summer: déjà vu,
watermelons
make their appearance along
with vacation, along with lawn
mowers, softball and Frisbee,
looking forward to cool of fall.
Autumn: déjà vu, leaves change,
leaves fall, the rustle of leaves,
leaves fall, the rustle of leaves,
giving hints of more changes
to come - Thanksgiving - frost -
decay - death at the edges of life.
