A Time To Sleep

Fall
                                                  Autumn
                                             Leaves of gold
                                           Squirrels squirrel
                                          their larders to fill
                                   with nuts acorns fruits seeds
                                   Hedgehogs start to hibernate
                                 snuffling cosy place for to sleep
                         whilst Nature dreams of her Spring Parade

Hello Ann Gilmour, I dolike this poem. I do see the squirrels already hiding their nuts. Yet i do see the squirrels come out in winter looking for nuts. Have a nice evening my friend.
