The Year runs by

by Keg - Leo

January, it is cold, 
no life, no joy,
no laughter
just darkness 
with her icy jaws
swallowing up the land.

Febuary, short in life
but still, it is cold
the winter draws on
darkness feasts some more

March and the winds do blow
Change is approachin
darkness is scared
cold shall be no more
As life enters in

April, the new born lamb
symbol that spring is here
life is all around
the daffodil shines radiant
as the sun

May, it is warmer now
Life is in full blossom
Gone is the darkness
Here is the Light
The sun holds its throne in the sky

June, the land is bright
sun beams cast all over
Children play and lovers dance
The season of sweet romance

July, hotter still
parched is the land
thirsty for the rains to come
no gentle breeze
to refresh
the desert lands

August, the land is bare
the sun blinds with ray
where are the winds of change
to breathe life into desolate things

September, change at last
A glorious climatic event
Trees cast their leaves
Life harvests the land
To endure the coming tide

October, a symphony of colour
Red Sky
Golden land
A spectacular end to life
That brings a tear

November, colours fade
The days are gone
Back are the icy claws
of the dark creature
to claim the land

December, time for remembering
to feast before the coming months
to enjoy the company of loved ones
inside, away from the jaws
of cold darkness.

Reason for writing:

    Time goes by, so does a year.  I hope movement is portrayed.
