A FOUR DAY WEEK Another Year is closing fast Where did the Summer go? Time for Falling Temperatures As the Leaves begin to Glow. Oranges, Reds and Yellows Some, just a paler Green Some falling to the Earth To paint an Autumn scene. Seeds of Growth are set Free To receive Nature’s Grooming Most Flowers lose their Petals While a few start Blooming. The Days begin to shorten The Dark more than the Light Animals grow Winter’s coat Some Birds have taken Flight. Some “snowbirds” are heading South For all the Sun that they can find Some can’t wait for the Snowfall And Winter Sports of every kind. Let’s all hope the Storms of Summer Aren’t a sign of things to be That Old Man Winter doesn’t go On some kind of Chilling Spree. Mother Nature rules our Weather And there is nothing we can do But wait until She changes Seasons And this coming one is through. Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter Are the Four Days of Her Week And if we only wait for them to change We’ll find that favorite one, we seek. 11-03-2005 Del "Abe" Jones |
