A seasoned life

Child Mourning

Spring was when he cried.  When the leaves fell, making a golden floor, he would dance and kick. In Winter, he would laugh and keep giggles in ice to make drinks fizz. Summer was the time of quiet warmth. But Spring, he visited and sat on his grave to remember.

  1. Painful memories associated with seasons come back to haunt us year after year, yet, there are somethings we need to remember as well. Great photo for the piece too.

  4. I'm glad you sent the wrong link as well as the right on. I really enjoyed this. It's a little morsel of prose poetry, which is my favorite form.

    Thanks for visiting my 55.
