Change of Seasons
Once, Summer donned a leafy gown,
lush and green were the leaves she wore.
Too soon, her clothes came tumbling down,
stripped from branches, she watched them soar.
She suffered blows
from Nature's throes.
Curled in shades of russet and brown,
withered leaves rest on forest's floor.
Alas, Summer ceded her crown,
when Autumn knocked upon her door.
With season spun,
her reign was done.
