Seasons

Seasons Plants pushing out their last spurts of growth and flowers Beginning to slowly recognize the coolness of the approaching season Summer slowly giving way The temperature gradually dropping Fall begins to reign and flourish Painting tree leaves in a kaleidoscope of color Triggering countless acorn showers Awakening the instinct of squirrels and forest creatures To begin storing food or searching for shelter For hibernation or sleep Tree leaves rapidly dropping leaving bare tree branches As the temperature rapidly plummets Heralding the start of Winter Strong bitter cold wind fiercely blowing Snow storms blanketing the land in crisp white Starkly contrasting against the gray sky Causing a turning inward for many months Daydreaming of the warmth, blue sky, and new growth Of the upcoming Spring
