On this morning
As clouds skid quickly
Across an icy sky
Leaving behind them
Trails of cold tears
To quench the fires
Now burning in trees
The promise of quiet
Days and cold nights
Fills my heart.

During this day
As thunder rumbles
Through air thick with
The sounds of moaning
Winds and protesting
Denizens of the forest
The images of summer
are all but forgotten.

After the light
Has faded into gloom
Filled with shadows darker
Still than those cast by memories
Buried in a tomb of favored
Forgetfulness,
Only the dreams of changing
Seasons sustains the weary.

Keeping us safe in the only thing consistent.
Change. So glad you see the cycle as a growing pain. Wonderfully done dear Sir!

Sincerely,
