The season of spring
brings the return
of old friends –
from the migrating birds
that catch your eye
and sing their sweet songs,
to the slumbering bears,
awake and looking for food –
to the first glimpse of green
and buds of flowers
that begin to bloom.
Do you not rejoice
with each familiar sighting –
is it not like
a coloring book
that has not yet
been filled in –
does not each return
in this season of spring,
fill in the color
you have been looking for?
It is not with anticipation
that you look for signs,
that bring back to you
the familiar sights –
are they not always
with you
in your memory,
are they not truly gone –
only out of your sight?
In each Cycle of Life,
is there not a season
of spring?
The return,
the rejoicing,
when you see
loved ones again –
they are not truly gone,
are they not just
out of your sight?
Do you not notice
the signs that
they are still here –
is there not something
that draws your attention,
something catches your eye,
or a song that you hear –
is it not like welcoming
the first signs of spring –
“There you are,” you exclaim,
“I knew you were here!”
As Love is the catalyst
that brings color
to Life –
can you fill
in the spaces
that appear black and white –
there is a richness
to Love
that reminds you
that All is alive –
in the Season of Love –
Love never dies.
Welcome back.
Welcome Home.
Welcome Love.
You Are Love Now
