A poem

With thanks to Rachel of Foxglove & Ivy for gifting this beautiful photo to accompany my poem.

Isn’t it funny how many feelings we fight?

What if we let them fall and settle,
like the dew at night?
Like rain and snow and petals;
particles of dust that shower down
in shafts of light.

When winter comes,
we do not tell it that it’s wrong.
We might still wish it on its way…
