The Changing Seasons of Love

The first time we met right from the start
Like an ocean of joy you filled my heart
Love only lasting but a season was fun
When the sky was blue and there was sun
That first beautiful season of our love
But real is life with season's changing
Somehow clouds always rearranging
And a dying fire turns the skies to smoke
And the summer of love, it starts to cloak
Among the rose's thorns we scrape our hearts
When feelings get hurt and vulnerability starts
During storms when lovebirds stop a' singing
Such sour winds of adversity are a' bringing
That is when the power of intimacy fulfill
The ever lasting growth for love to instill
Expecting each other will always be there
When comfort's needed have we any to spare?
The greatest amount of love we can give
Is when we both are hurt and must forgive

About this poem:
Like the seasons change so does love. It goes through many stages of new growth and decay and new growth again....You may be always kind but are you still generous?

Love can hurt deeply but I feel still that It's better to have loved and lost...
