Two sides to the medallion

seasons come and seasons go, sun upholds its heavenly glow
botanical beauty fills the earth, a sole flower finds its worth
never chained yet never free, life's pay is fairly sweet

seasons come and seasons go, snow overthrows a lifetime of growth
birds take off to the west, heavenly wings permanently blessed
a flower yields before its own demise, spring nor summer answer its cries

ends come yet beginning seems clear, imagination colored by fear
time upholds its fatal hand, dust and ashes retake their stand
paths lead to so many ways, could only say 'I remember the days'

all that remains is dance in life's shower
and maintain the inner beauty of its flower

Author notes

I wrote this yesterday and finished it today,
I know I haven't written anything lately,
hope that the writing block ends with this

    i love most of it honestly. god i feel so picky about poetry lately! :] i love the first two stanzas. they are unbelievable. but the last two were awkward in my opinion. like NinetyNemo said its a whole new style coming from you! and im totally into it.
    but anyways this has a really great message.
    amazing as usual.

    agreed with lunatyx, you're back ^^
    i'm used to you writing about something simple, only to uncover its dark twist

    nicely written, great choice of words, but somteimes the rhythm doesn't work out anyways, a good write, and glad to see your writer's block has come to an end.

    Grtz, Flater

    There's Phaeton again !!

    I loved it bro !
    It's great, not just the words or the scheme, no - the entire poem is proof of the fact that your writers block is over

    Keep it coming
