Literature helps us see a great deal about ourselves. So does poetry. Each poem unveils our own emotions and allows us true insight into our feelings and character. Here is a poem about our changing emotions throughout the seasons. To be aware of such things is essential to being human. Likewise, the more aware you are, the more likely you have empathy for yourself.
From a Heart in a Season
Can we reach each other in the cold?
Where frost holds us hostage.
Where the night finds us before
we’re even ready.
Can we hold each other in the spring?
The wind whips and the rain runs.
Gray skies head overhead–rumbling
because seasons move forward.
Can we see each other in the summer?
The water is blue, like the sky, blended beautifully.
We can stand on the sand and laugh
until our eyes fill with memory.
Can we stay together in the fall?
When the leaves topple toward us.
The colors have changed, but we
haven’t, nor our love.
