Seeking Rhyme and Reason

Unbidden, yet you come to pierce my heart
Reminding me of all that has been lost
In darkest night or at the new dawn's start
You're lurking close exacting loving's cost.
You ride the breeze of each crisp autumn day
And hide within the chill of wintertime;
You bring again ice-laden clouds of gray
Concealing all life's harmony and rhyme.
The hopefulness of Spring demands you leave;
You fiercely choke each robin's lovely trill;
You drown me in your mighty waves that heave
And pulverize my soul with sorrow's fill.

Will changing seasons ever bring relief
Unfettered by these chains of sorest grief?
