Coming Winter

By Dolores Hardin Richardson

Coming Winter is about reaching a stage in life where we begin to notice differences within and around us. Things are changing like the season does in autumn, were realizing were older and becoming more spiritual. We might notice attitudes or habits we try to improve on, and we may even reach a deeper level of love with others we care for. The world, meantime, is going through similar changes. People become more dear to us. The world itself becomes a dear place to be. We want it all perfect, yet do we know what perferct is?

AUTUMN WHEN COLORS MERGE

The days of Spring and Summer appear just beyond my reach

And I could moan my loss, if it were loss indeed,

But it is not. Those yellow honey days of Spring

I yet stir with my spoon, and I still bless the wings

Of bees involved in miracles.

The passion days of Summer still simmer red and warm

And I still hold their embers in my bowl. No storm

Can yet rage hard enough to extinguish their steady glow.

It is not they, but I who am the center pole

Around which all things turn.

Spring and Summer. Yellow and red. Both blend to form

Autumn, the most perfect unchangeable color Orange.

When passed through a prism, Orange does not separate

Into yellow and red. Orange remains Orange. It is I who

Will make tomorrow white or blue-warm.
