Another season snaps
the cold winter heat death
So smoothly into
the warm buzzing Spring Bang:
Birds chirp their whistle song
as their asteroid ancestors sang
once upon a young world burning.
Spring explodes with Nature's turning
another age too soon-
to notice Her rebirth
Stars gorge in upon themselves
(some losing weight infinitely:
to better fit the fashion of Summer)
Other swingeing appetites obey:
so Summer's stars sate spacial
hungering.
And back to falling at Autumn's approach:
the flames and leaves all fall apart
to protons and dead things
littering black streets and skies
Another natural cycle
Another Winter returning to Spring
Another grand Life and Death
Another season snaps...
