The Autumnal Equinox
Is but two days away
The traveling Sun is half-way South
Will not be there to stay
The leaves on trees are changing
Soon most of them will fall
Putting hosts in hibernation
It's their heed to nature's call
Winter views will soon appear
Such wonders for the sight
The shapes of empty branches
Roosting resting birds from flight
The birds will soon be gone
Green grass will turn to brown
Winter winds will chill the air
Snow will be falling down
Springtime buds will then appear
To fill the waking trees
Replacing Winter's emptiness
Renewing life that's sure to please
Returns then the heat of Summer
The Seasons' cycle now is done
I thoroughly enjoy them
Sure I'm not the only one
It's still an awesome happening
These aging eyes to see
The changing of the Seasons
Glad it happens annually
