The season family

The season family

The frail winter and the ancient summer are a couple
Together since the bang of the starting gun of time
They walk the Earth needing only of each other

Winter moves with a grazed icicle crutch
Summer is aided by an aged zimmer frame of hairy orange light

As they walk the land they cunjour up life and death in equal measures
Summer's piercing eyes reflected in the black ice of winters face
They each have a side of the sky
As a regular couple each have a side of the bed

Once a year winter gives his leaf free tree hand to summer
As she takes it in her voluptuous bussom of blossom spring is born

Once a year summer gives her leaf clothed tree hand to winter
As he takes it in his naked structure Autumn is born

Winter and summer man and wife
Spring and Autumn Sister and brother

This is beautiful - it'd bring a tear to Oscar Wilde's eye methinks.
