Autumn, World Class Painter

Raging heat and fires of summer have taken their toll                                                                                               But all things must at some point cease and tents must fold

Let the politics of weather now be stilled, summer has spoken                                                                                        A cooler wind is in the air, heat is now receding; Fall has broken                                                                            

Debate the climate, but Autumn brings a welcomed change                                                                 Let the clouds hasten their misty darkness, and bring the rain 

Let the Autumn walls of defense be a heat shield and force a halt                                                                                                                Bring new breezes, pause before the freeze, listen to Autumn talk

Brown lawn with touches of green, but come Autumn it'll be greener                                                          Not just a pile of leaves, but Autumn is a world-class painter
