Windlehurst through the Seasons

One time I used
To think of the soul
As round and smooth,
Like a sea-sucked pebble.
Then it was a green glow
The size of a sixpence,
This turned out to be the red sun
Cold on a skating scene calendar.
Still ( though I raise the images)
I try to describe my soul,
Try to make it beautiful by metaphor,
Try flowers, and stars, and sea-spray,
But always I come back to my childhood.
