SEASONS SO TRUE BY FIONA CUMMINGS


SEASONS SO TRUE

BY FIONA CUMMINGS

The yellow skies are fading now

The colourful blooms are leaving wow

Replacing them are gold’s and reds

Whilst dead foliage carpet the flower beds

Bowing branches to their knees

Saddened as they want to please

But among the crispy paths of leaves

We remember summer like in our dreams

An once again we enter autumn

Fires a lit and closed curtains

Turn on lamps to add some glow

As we await for winters snow

Where would we be without our seasons

I for one count my blessings

For a change of scenery is a change of heart

As weather comes and then does part

A new view from my window

A different smell as I open my door

A new garden chore

The robins visit for the Christmas cards

Red berry’s gone now so feeding is hard

Chimneys smoke and fires cracking

Hedgehogs gather all the bracken

Warm gloves on, seams that’s fitting

As Jack Frost keeps nipping

The autumnal nights of inky blue

Our gardens change from old to new
