The Autumnal Equinox

The Autumnal Equinox
By Franklin Price

The Autumnal Equinox
Is but two days away
The  traveling Sun is half-way South
Will not be there to stay

The leaves on trees are changing
Soon most of them will fall
Putting hosts in hibernation
It's their heed to nature's call

Winter views will soon appear
Such wonders for the sight
The shapes of empty branches
Roosting resting birds from flight

The birds will soon be gone
Green grass will turn to brown
Winter winds will chill the air
 Snow will be falling down

Springtime buds will then appear
To  fill  the waking trees
Replacing Winter's emptiness
Renewing life that's sure to please

Returns then the heat of Summer
The Seasons' cycle now is done
I thoroughly enjoy them
Sure I'm not the only one

It's still an awesome happening
These aging eyes to see
The changing of the Seasons
Glad it happens annually
