One Year

[JWagner]

March 20 - April 20

Seeds break through the earth anew
to bring forth all that life pursue
with strength and fighting spirit high -
ARIES leads the charge, reaching for the sky

April 20 - May 21

Slowly rooting, firm and strong
In the earth, they all belong
TAURUS thrives with life's delight -
going calmly in the tranquil night

May 21 - June 21

The air is filled with a gentle hum,
everything stirs, moves, is on the run
Communicative, curious and unafraid -
a GEMINI's nature is on full display

June 21 – July 23

The blossoms now have been conceived,
in secrecy, work is achieved
A CANCER gathers strength within -
retreats in his shell, prefers pull-in

July 23 – August 23

Summer in its full delight
displays its power, oh so bright
with fruit and grandeur, full and free -
a LEO forms his destiny

August 23 – September 23

Harvest time demands great care,
precision, patience, oh be there!
Exactness is what's now required -
a VIRGO's skills is truly admired

September 23 – October 23

Balance between day and night,
harmony returns, in plain sight
Calm, beauty, and a quiet quest -
a LIBRA elevates the best

October 23 – November 23

Autumn comes, and with it, SCORPIO's might,
the deeply hidden comes to light
Nature dies and transforms, we see -
with color, passion and intensity

November 23 – December 21

Winds across the open fields do roam,
a vast horizon, the traveler's home
Clear nights and a longing for flight -
SAGITTARIUS desires the height

December 21 – January 21

The longest night has now arrived,
enveloped in dark, feeling deprived
It takes resolve, toughness and might -
CAPRICORN births the new light

January 21 – February 19

Winter's grip is finally done,
a craving for fun, ideas spun,
bringing us a mix of all -
AQUARIUS, communicative and free for all

February 20 – March 19

Sociable drifts, they have now ceased,
life flows on, inner peace increased
Understanding, intuition and a dream -
PISCES are brilliant, flow with the stream

Up to the top again!

[JWagner]

Yes, you can read it as a circle.

Hello Jan Wagner,

I made a few corrections to my poem. Unfortunately, this pushed yours down. That's why I commented again to bring it back up.
Sorry for the confusion!

Best regards, EV

[JWagner]

Thank you!

Kann ich als früh im Februar Geborene nicht bestätigen. Da ist der Winter nicht "done", da haut er richtig rein. Ach ja, Aquarius. Ich bin einer. Na und? Was heißt denn "free of all"?

Bullshit!

Wenn sich jemand der Lyrik widmet, fällt ihm da nicht mehr ein, als den Tierkreis zu verballhornen?

[JWagner]

Stimmt, die Strophe ist schwach und sogar fehlerhaft. So wäre es besser:

Winter's grip is not over yet,
impatience is growing, don't forget:
be honest, helpful and innovative -
AQUARIUS, a free spirit so creative!
