STEPS
Blazing summer smiles
Occasional norwester
Brings pain and pleasure
Light footsteps of rain
A beauty at first, then beast
Teaches endurance
Early autumn is
Comely, serene and festive
Sprinkling contentment
In fall; late autumn
‘Ecstasy and agony’
Keats is everywhere
Trees shorn of beauty
Expectant for warm caress
And fragrant moments
Sprightly spring steps in
Her magic wand blesses all
Life returns with joy
Thus come one by one
Touches, teaches each of us
For the final step
