Four-Seasons-in-One

Painting and Poem by Abe V Rotor

"... the seasons come and go, never growing old;

each with rhyme, rhythm, and the meter of living,

renewing hope, keeping faith, humbling the bold."

Four-Seasons-in-One, acrylic, AVR 2012

I love the seasons, I want them all at the same time:

spring, summer, autumn, winter - rolled into one;

for I can't wait each coming, or the trouble to find;

one sitting before the canvas and everything's done.

So in my life, seasons crowd in, knowing not which one

comes in the morning or evening, at work or play;

I lost track of Vivaldi's Four Seasons, and the bond

of creation that brings all together to pray.

The artist in me called, there's order in every thing -

the seasons come and go, never growing old;

each with rhyme, rhythm, and the meter of living,

renewing hope, keeping faith, humbling the bold.~
