The elemental boughs of the seasons
Change their vivid colors so rapidly
Naught could blink an eye
And miss their splendor
Leaves fall to the barren earth
Branches naked in the cold
Under Winter’s chilly stare
Frozen glares and tears of death
But what pales begets pallor
Wintry white to healthy green
Watered by Summer’s warm sweat
Hot Sun shine down upon them
Thus the sequence is originated
An eternal ring of ice and fire
A promise to us that life’s no liar
Never distracted by wants, desires
