Seasons

If you watch closely,

all the seasons are lined up so beautifully,

Like autumn teaches us letting go.

During winters, after letting go of the leaves,

The tree is all empty, no leaves, like it's broken from inside,

But as spring comes, it starts to heal,

And by the time summer comes, it has started blooming,

By the time rain comes in it shines brightly,

Like it got the spark back
