Harsh winds and
winter teach
that life is not always rainbows
and roses
but when sunny summer
springs
it's daffodils and colour
how can one begin
to
forget
the memory of love
that has gone beyond reach
does the subtle and
piercing sorrow
of winter love not
leave its
mark even when
the new season
comes?
