+Arctic fox's den
+adorned with flowers and snow
+garden in winter
+</pre>
+

+
+<pre class="verse">
+A measure of grain
+and a measure of water &mdash;
+spring's own time and heat
+
+Air carries the scent
+of myriads of lives spent
+on summer's warm breath
+
+Crumb and density,
+warmth buried beneath crisp crust &mdash;
+autumn's crackling leaves.
+
+Loves and loaves and loaves
+baked for comfort in the cold &mdash;
+winter calls for stores.
+</pre>
+
+-----
+
+<pre class="verse">
+Leaves fall, grass withers,
+and I step back to witness
+winter's frozen form.
+
+Half an hour's silence,
+body relaxing slowly,
+letting springtime in.
+
+A season to stretch,
+then one to learn everything &mdash;
+summer's exploring.
+
+What will autumn bring?
+Maturity? Strength? Wisdom?
+Dry heat and cool nights?
+</pre>
+
+------
+
+<pre class="verse">
+And I walk until
+all I can hear is the wind
+among the fir trees.
+
+Summer breezes bear away
+all the choices of years past.
+</pre>
+
+-----
+
+<pre class="verse">
+Drink deep of death-thoughts
+as the day dies with a yawn &mdash;
+the year starts to fade.
+</pre>
