The Right Seasons Poem by Ravi Panamanna

There is a time for everything-
To be born
To expire
To marry,
And to be a parent.

There is a time for everything-
A plant to flower,
A tree to bear,
A Spring to awaken birds,
A dale to blossom.

There is a time for everything-
A girl to be a bride,
A river to flow in full,
Snows to melt,
The summer heat to disappear.

There is a time for everything-
To get a pat and start,
To get a whip and go,
To get a face-lift,
To melt the shadows of night.

Seeds are deep in the earth,
Seasons take care of their sprout.
What may be a long, silent spell
Need not be in toto a death knell-
Time takes care of the swell.
