Change

This Holly Plant lives just outside my door.

A season in turmoil. The circle gets smaller. Loved ones pass on leaving us behind to sort out the ravages of being. Such loss is soothed only by a long spring. But wounds remain so, as we find a way to live with them.

we are left standing

as december roars on through

this season of life

a little more worn, rumpled

but for this, we are grateful

highs and lows

on the road to spring –

beginings

…………………

buds hold fast

in turbulent wind

springs promise

………………….

winter browns

slowly loose there grip

spring takes hold

with no path to grace
