One Year – One Life.
In winter, a little seed
sleeps cosily in the earth,
like the love of a little child
surrounded by homely warmth.
§
In spring, our little plant sprouts up
grows quickly forming buds,
like youngsters grow and feel inside
the surge of romantic love.
§
In summer, the flowers come out
so beautiful and gay.
Then love is at its height
with children on the way.
§
In autumn, plants begin to wilt
and shed their leaves and seeds.
Love then becomes a friendship
as children claim their needs.
§
In winter, seeds are in the ground
while plants wither and fade.
Love becomes a memory
as loved ones pass away.
