Changes Upon Changes

When wind is in the linden trees
And wings are on the rise
When coldness spears the dawn
And vibrant colors streak the skies

It is time to think ahead, my friend,
Of what the day will bring
It is not the same old melody
The morning sparrows sing

The hour glass sands are turning
And a season’s being born
There are changes upon changes
In the garment you have worn

So shed your summer greenery
Don multi colored cloaks
Let my window frame the splendor
Of the sprawling golden oaks

In the reverie of autumn
As my lungs embrace the cold
For those wild impending blizzards
Let me brace my autumn soul

Nice writing!

So many descriptions of Autumn, but I still loved this one. Full of beauty.

Love this...the poplars in Georgia are starting to put on their coats of yellow.
