Season`s Windows

  

The window of summer is closing

those glorious days in the sun

walks but the river

paddling in the pool

lazing in the garden

cooking on the barbeque

all these events stay with us

as the window slowly closes

and another one opens

 

autumn is peeping through

bring its vibrant colours

reds, oranges and yellows

 

once through the window

autumn creeps through everything

as the leaves change before our eyes

a whirl wind knocking them off trees

making them look bare and cold

many fruits and nuts ripen

and the nights start to draw in

autumn dances around

having so much fun

in the setting sun light

 

cold frosted mornings

your breath visible

a need to wrap up warm

 

it won`t be long before Autumn has to go

back through the window again

closing it behind as another one opens

will winter be next to peep through?
