SEASONS OF LOVE !

BRIAN & ANGELA

 

IN AUTUMN ~ When the days grow short

I walked with ANGEL through the Wood

Our steps were light ~ we deep in thought

And life for us  ~ was always good

IN AUTUMN ~ When the days grow short !

 

IN WINTER ~ In the Frost and Snow

We cuddled long ~ by fireside

Into the Woods we could not go

Too dangerous with slip and slide

IN WINTER ~ In the Frost and Snow !

 

IN SPRING ~ The days are Bright ~ OK

Snowdrops and Bluebells coming out

The cold of WINTER blown away

The Birds & Bees fly round about

In SPRING ~ The days are Bright ~ OK !

 

IN SUMMER ~ When the days are long 

We picked ripe Blackberries in the Wood

Our steps were light ~ Our Love was strong

We feasted on our hedgerow food

IN SUMMER ~ When the days were long ! 

 

Thanks for visiting ~ comments welcome ~ Love BRIAN & ANGELA

          Thanks for your generous reply Laura ! Your Italian title sounds much better than mine ~ but it also sounds like a Perfect Pizza ! I like to explain the structure of the Poem in terms of metre and rhyme pattern ~ OK ! Seasonal Hugs ~ BRIAN XOX

          • LaurašŸŒ»

            The pizza never crossed
            my mind...but youā€™re right!
            It would make sense.
            It is lunchtime there.
            Itā€™s breakfast time here!
            Do you make your own?

            • BRIAN & ANGELA

              SI LAURA ~ TUTTI ABIAMO LE PIZZE ! MAMA bakes the cases and then we make our own fillings ~ we also have lots of takeaway Pizzarias ~ Italian Cuisine Rules OK ~ Abbracci Largi BRIAN XOXOX

              • LaurašŸŒ»

                Bravo!!

              • orchidee

                A fine un-swoony write there Brian!

              • orchidee

                Erm, a technical point. Can you help? Is 'OK' one or two syllables, if I use it? Is it 'O' and 'Kay', or 'Ock'? I wish I would stop talking rubbish! lol.

                • BRIAN & ANGELA

                  HI STEVE ~ OK is always TWO SYLLABLES and NHS is three ~ in abbreviations I was taught that each letter is a SYLLABLE USA three etc ! Thanks for your comment ~ I thought you had swooned enough recently ! Yours BRIAN W (double U) is of course ONE LETTER but three syllables so WVS (Woman's Voluntary Service) would be FIVE SYLLABLES etc !

                • Christina8

                  Your love for Angela shines through on these. Great job! Sisterly hugs-Christina

                  • BRIAN & ANGELA

                    Nice writing, Brian. I do like how you describe love in terms of seasons.

                    • BRIAN & ANGELA

                      Well FRED I am "A Man for All Seasons" and a Man (and a Woman) needs "Love for all Seasons" ~ Thanks for your comment ~ BRIAN !
