I never knew Summer

By Silver Spectre

I never knew Summer, that she was not time,
Not space or distance or a measure of mine,
Until I understood in the naming of seasons
When we know the words and think the why
That I never knew any definition of seasons
even Fall, Spring , Winter and I,  may be nothing
Until I stand, accepted her pain, Not truth and a lie.
 
Based off the tale of another season's Strife.
I learned the sins of fall, spring and Winter is I
Winter's sin was the day And Summer's the Night
I felt something soft and hard, Heavy and light
Clenching winter, alarmed Summer's Truth and non-Truth
And caressing and killing stood Winter just standing by
 
The Clarion rain showers Winters Isle, Truth and non-truth of the two
Which am I,  as the armies Move close
To See the sun beat Summer down, panics the race on
 the Truth and a lie, our Armies moving on
Winter Tales," the Devil tells, the Truth And a Lie"
Summer hears Winter's tale as well Truth and untruth
 
I once knew Summer and Winter and Truth and a lie, but God gives us truths and untruths 
to which we must devine.

A man reads a passage in some old gospel, : Concerning the above writing. It carried down to me at the end of below what I describe.
Brothers and Sisters, once in the land of XYZ 2017 I followed my heart and Pain for I was new to this brand and spirit lead me through 4 of signs cycle of years with whispers of my own sounding voice.through rocky shores and springs
 I danced in the Darkness until my gills had turned blue Until I heard the shout of my Purple Voice, NOW!!!!!I
 knelt to the Ground I looked up To See the last as planned saved out
the Magician and Lovers they figured it out The I am of Am I and charioted together and turned the lights out.
I will never forget how caught in their gaze were each other before the where out of sight. And Those words fell from his Eye
 
The man starts speaking start dictation. .Stardate 4037
We read with our left , Close. We give with our right.
And God gives Untruths and truths Just in case there is still truth and a lie……And I met this Girl……

    This is a wonderful piece! The truth and untruth personified by seasons that can never truly meet is a stroke of intellect I found particularly interesting. I also love the final line of your description of the origin of these thoughts... “And God gives Untruths and truths Just in case there is still truth and a lie……And I met this Girl……”. Very nice! Ciao, T/S Scholar
