Sonnet 5 ~ Sunshine Generates Life Anew

Sonnet 5 ~ Sunshine Generates Life Anew

Time creates such beauty and builds character

Captures the hearts and sights while youthfully aglow,

but fades without hesitation as the bell of ageless clock tolls:

Time’s discriminatory fruits harvest among their fundamental nature.

Summertime all bright excels so quickly to

Cover us under winter's white blankets cold;

Everything under heaven falls asleep,

Water frozen through and branches crack:

But, still beauty shines through the frosted window frame, sunshine’s ray of hope,

A fine warm glow, touching the face, warms the soul,

Beauty succeeds beauty where the chill of snow dispels and grey of short day fade,

To darkness of the night, now cold and alone:

But, light drawn through the greenhouse; gives life wherein winter’s natural furry's untouched.

Not frozen to darkness; but blooms alive with new life.
