Seasons

Spring, fresh cheeked, thrills us with renewal, Heralding life’s cycle born anew Summer, with the face of adolescence, Warms the heart and smiles at us with flowers Autumn dances to the song of twilight, It's age dismissed with colorful abandon Winters presence meets a cold reception And mourns the passing of another year

Nice parallel of the seasons, Bob. Fresh-cheeked spring is thrilling-you're right. Autumn as a dancer seems just perfect too. Congrats on this winning write.
