Seasons of the Soul
The soul, though a spirit, has seasonal moods
Many moods that are subject to change.
Analogous to the four seasons of earth
And through all four of them range.
When moods of deep depression form,
Tis Winter appears in my soul.
Dark thoughts and dreams up from the depths
Bring forth a chilling cold.
Then laughter, as the children play
Drifts softly to my ear
And I have feeling in my soul
That breath of Spring is near.
The season of Autumn is for the soul-
Tranquility and peace.
A time for giving love and care,
And hostile thoughts will cease.
It’s season of Summer brings to the soul
A mood lighthearted and free
Through space, unencumbered, to heavens soar,
Then return across mountains and sea.
