May showers May 2, 2014

 

April showers don't always bring May flowers, sometimes May showers do, the buds of April just now breaking open, a treasure chest that contains the whole new season, the bursting of life, the appearance of green things growing out of brown loam, to renew life.

 I walk in the rain as if I expect renewal, too, still clinging to the Fall , leaves of Love lingering in the ground at my feet, felled in a season prior to the cold, making the foundation for what we cherish now.

 love comes in spring, dies in Fall, to get reborn again, each season makes me feel it again, the rise and fall, the perishing and Resurrection, love being born out of what it once was, forever, if it is true love, clinging to us, the way the wet leaves cling to me,  I cannot be rid of them, and do not wish to be, needing love to die and rise again, needing it to keep me whole
