The summer wanes in retirement
Screaming its refusal in various subtleties
Daylight lasting far beyond expectancy
Muggy nights accompany the cricket symphony
The last of the Dahlias holding on like veterans
Gravity pulling at nature but not winning entirely
The sun has had its hoopla –
But fall and its splendor!
The luscious colors of calm
Temperate weather and falling leaves
Jack o’ lantern grins and candy promises
The moderate days spoil us
But wait! Don’t forget your umbrella…
Winter that chills and thrills
A blanket of beauty that covers a town
Chained tires and cocoa grins
Heavy coats, snowmen, and sleds galore
Chattering teeth miss the season before –
And who could forgo spring in the air?
The bright thriving flowers
Chirping birds everywhere
Rain claiming its space
Smiles etched into place
A year in completion…..
