Farewell To Summer

Fuchsia, scarlet, gold, and crimson colors seemingly Appear overnight amidst the forest-green leaves. Roses are giving way to chrysanthemums and Evergreens, as Jack Frost starts sculpting icy Windowpanes with feathery Etchings of abstract art. Lately, subtle changes are taking place, Like short cloudy days and long cold nights. Toward the end of Summer's dog days, Orange mosaics begin blanketing the ground. Summertime is swiftly slipping away, tucked Under the warm wing of a zephyr wind. Many of the songbirds have already left, Migrating southward to Escape the howl of winter winds filled with Rage, in the wake of Summer's death.
