WINTER

 

I went out to the garden of my yard

to explore yesterday and the past

I saw the white lilies bend down in despair

and the red roses turning pale in the air

Winter is about to appear with an arrow

Threatening autumn to bow

His claws have shaken all my desire

and deactivate in me all the fire

The sound of children laughter

touch my heart and pleasure

Tapping me lightly on my shoulder

reminding me of my treasure

Winter will soon take the time over

I have to light up the fire

bring back alive the children desire

and keep the promise of summer

My children will have to tell the tale

of conquering cold during the battle

and won the trophy of God

for we have faced it with bold
