Each Cycle Has Its Season

I often wondered why spring
would so seldom reach its full swing
’til my birthday brought it my way
in the month of be-as-it-May.

I now no longer debate
if it’s better for me to wait
for the planets to be aligned
ere I leave the past far behind.

Events have proven to me
that, in April, patience is key;
once the Taurus sun settles in,
a more fertile time will begin.

As light surpasses the dark,
oh-so-happily I’ll embark
on a new and exciting year
that will quickly kick into gear!

Before a birthday arrives,
comes a pause in each of our lives;
out of stillness is born clear sight
that propels us toward what is right.

And we need not know the reason,
for each cycle has its season.
