Seasons Of Life Poem by Biniam Tekeste

Summer is a mean man
Who burns your skin
And later says, "Sorry, "
With his pleasant and refreshing rain.

Autumn is a fall
How high you rise
- it doesn't matter
Life declines
And hits the floor.

Winter is coldhearted
No one is grateful to it
Sigh and cry
Reign over its sky.

Spring, is it a sprinter?
As wind dashes
Fleet-footed time rushes
To hastily jump into Forever.

Life is short
Just a moment long
Like fish leap back into water
We hastily jump into Forever.
