Dark
Winter
Earth sleeping
Hibernating
Dreaming and waiting
Renewing energy
Slumbering tranquility
Peacefully regenerating
Awaiting the next turn of the wheel
Anticipating the season of life
Continually chasing death's season
As the wheel continues its cycle
Regenerated life returns
Hungering ravenously
Vibrating energy
Active and alert
Awakening
Earth rising
Summer
Light

In the second line of the second stanza, "it's" should not have an apostrophe. Fix that and you're a finalist.
I love this poem! The cycles of winter and summer, dark and light are well portrayed here. Great imagery. Thanks for entering and good luck in the contest!
