I know the seasons.

I know
the sudden outpouring
of kindness
that I am supposed
to pickle and somehow store
to eat during our
winters.

I know
to prepare,
to harvest every last
bit of goodness from you,
so that you are barren
when you leave,
but I am well stocked.

They way you put your lines together in this makes think this is allegorical, and that's really cool. So I'm sitting here thinking of all the things in life I harvest from, leaving barren while I am well stocked.
