If only I could show you; after Winter 

Spring awaits to show you it’s glory 

What now feels cold and barren  

Will soon give way to celebration  

Of color and fragrance and butterflies and moths… 

If only I could show you; after Summer 

The scorching heat of toil and effort 

Will soon bear fruit so sweet and grand 

And you shall rejoice with friends who have come to stay… 

If only I could show you; after Autumn 

Leaves of traces of bygone battles will soon be swept away 

By mighty winds soon proclaiming tales of your victories 

To passersby; inspiring them by your spark so generous… 

If only I could show you; a mirror to your face 

Tarnished now by tears and sweat and blood 

That soon these eyes are going to brim over  

With tears of gratitude and joy and triumph… 

If only I could show you; the promise of tomorrow 

That we await with bated breath today.
