Even though they have no signs of life, winter is only a time of rest for them as they await their natural rejuvenation in the spring. Though we old-timers know and accept the fact that winter is the final season of life for us here on earth, there is an innate longing for life instilled in our being. Burns said it best. “Thou golden time, o’ Youthful prime, Why comest thou not again!”
*Robert Burns – “The Fall of the Leaf”

katharine - i so enjoyed reading this moment in your life. It so wonderful to read about, as you put it, "old-timers" still wonderfully in love with each other. Maybe it's a new form of love than when you first met, but it's still incredibly special. Warmed my heart!
