Wonderful thought. Verses that touch and move gently over many a feelings and flash pictures of the past too, though the content tolls a fine maxim in itself! Sweet summer blooms and autumn leaves in right ratio blended and kept in a mind jar would bless the whole self with wild haunting scent. God Bless. What a cute write!

An excellent comparison of blooms and leaves. The blossoms of our lives should be lovely and bear fruits. Our leaves falling away in autumn should shed some burdens and cares of the world. An inspiring write for this one is. A Valsa classic indeed!

Indeed as Mr Robert Herrick once said in a similar vein, Gather ye rosebuds while ye may. This too be true of friends in weather fair and foul and ones reputation once traded in haste can never be reclaimed. A very sage, succinct write.

The cycle of time and seasons makes this happen in all inevitability. The last two lines have the ultimate charm!
