    Thank you, Wendy, for your kind words. Much needed at the moment. I have both a sister and a brother who have been diagnosed with Alzheimer's. It breaks my heart as I know the journey all too well.

This is a beautiful expression of what love is. I like that you've compared it to each of the seasons. I love your use of color and the various senses you included. I also like the alliteration beginning each stanza incorporating a season. My favorite simile is the North Star lighting 'the way towards home.' Nicely done! Best wishes in the contest. Carol

    Carol, your encouraging words and the six stars are so appreciated. It is not easy to put real love into words.

    You're right, it's not easy to express real love in words. You've done a great job, though.

Love that thrives through all four seasons would be an everlasting love. Timeless love that bonds two soul mates for life. I like your perspective on what love is.

This is a lovely list of similes of what Love is likened to in every season. And true love is for all seasons of life and we do well to point each other to the greatest love of all - the Light of the World.
Best wishes in the contest!
