The Transition In Season Poem by Kellyn, A Grau

The suns rays descend into the blanket of the sea
Its waves seem to snuff its light out
And makes my heart seem to ache
The changing temperature seems to speak to me
And forewarn me of the changes to come
It seems the warm embrace of summer
Has faded just as soon as it had come

So next in line is falls embrace
Its crisp air tickles my nose
Its cool weather wraps me up in a hoodie
And I take refugee in my lover’s arms
The fun hayrides and the sweet changes of color
Its all so wonderful in my minds eye
And yet just as soon as the fall tickles me
Winter creeps up to seize me

My body freezes and my hands grow numb
I fear the lack of sun light and the long nights
The hatred I have for winter is deep
And it alters my persona completely
I’m miserable and aggravated
I’m distant and forlorn
And yet with an encouraging gesture
He seems to pick me up

My mood it sways back and forth
From discomfort to acceptance
Knowing he is by my side
Helps me with the rough transition
With freezing nights comes lost days in bed
Snuggled up in his chest
His smell makes my heart beat faster
And I can’t remember why I was angry

Soon spring will come and perk up my mood
But until then I’ll dwell in December
But with his constant reassurance
I’ll deal with the distaste in my mouth
And enjoy the closeness that it seems
To influence my relationship with him

So winter, my arch enemy
I’ll cast away my thoughts of destruction
And the plots of pushing you away
Your season is saved for the time being
And you can thank my love for your life
