Summer is winding down and I was inspired to write another [intlink id="359" type="category"]poem[/intlink] that thrusts the four seasons together with love for another mash-up [intlink id="4532" type="post"]sonnet[/intlink]…
The Season of Our Love
Summer wanes like a fading ocean tide
Autumn will flood and then forge its retreat
Leaving Winter’s cold waters to preside
Until Spring’s renewal laps at our feet
Watching the heated breeze toss your soft hair
Knowing Fall’s hues can’t approach your beauty
Your emerald fire will melt the frigid stare
I live in the season of you and me
Your touch soothes the fierce storms of my soul
Raging weather healed with your hand in mine
We’ll ere lie beneath the sun, on the knoll
I’ll love you always, ’til the end of time
Each season, as does the sea, ebbs and flows
‘Cept the one of our love, which ever grows
Beautiful. “I live in the season of you and me.”
I am impressed with the painting, which I really like for captivating scene. As for the sonnet, it is really written beautifully. I love the lines “Your emerald fire will melt the frigid stare.” It seems similar to the stare of a lover to the person he admires a lot. I wish I could write a sonnet as creative as this one.
