Seasonal Whir

Springtime and Summer pass in a whir
      Autumn winds expose a raw nerve

   December frost retrieves Old Man Winter
      What's for dessert ~ I think I'll skip dinner

Dear Gershon, seasonal whir, indeed, they fly by way too fast! “December frost retrieves Old Man Winter” - I love this line! I love all the seasons too (especially a snowy season) - don’t hate me for that hehe! Warmest wishes.. ~Susie SnowFlake

As I live and breathe, you are still in the land of the living!... I'll make you a deal, Susie SnowFlake. You get to love that Snowy Season IF you get a hunting license -- which is only good for two weeks, I hear. ~ Ready, Fire, Aim

You made me think of pumpkin pie for which, in Australia, I don't have the right pumpkin! Guess it'll have to be apple today! Eliz.

Now, you have your life's next mission in front of you, Elizabeth! -- Finding a way to grow or import the right kind of pumpkins in/to Australia for making pumpkin pie! Go to it!! You'll take the frost off of the pumpkin! :)

The frightening thing is the seasons fly by far too quickly for my liking. Tom

Same with me, Tom. When the Romans said 'Tempus Fugit,' they really meant it!!

Give me the sweet course in winter, when it’s warm and cosy inside, put thoughts of dinner to one side… Belle

There you go, Belle. Dessert first (and foremost), I always say. :) gw
