Autumn’s dead
Leaves rot
In winter’s earth.
Spring will bring
Earth’s rebirth.

Autumn’s dead
Leaves rot
In winter’s earth.
Spring will bring
Earth’s rebirth.
I heard a bird
Flap, in winter’s air.
He will fly,
I know not where.
While I
Shall go
In Winter’s snow.
Does he know
His journey’s end?
And what of thee
And me
My friend?
The wood is dark.
The lark
Does not sing.
Will spring
Come once more
And restore
The sleeping rose?
Who knows
But one can grope
For hope
In the frozen ground
And pray for a change profound.
