The Press of the Seasons

The press of the seasons the passing of time Winds whistle by Can winter be nigh Summertime's monarch on the wing in June Betimes eclipsed by Fall's Harvest Moon I look up at gray skies beg for Autumn to stay When the last leaf on the tree floats past me today September 26, 2020 Completely Your Choice (17) Poetry Contest Sponsor: Brian Strand

Seasonal changes are never put on hold for any reason. Where do the Monarchs go? Well done, GW.

The wheels of the seasons keep turning funny how you always see the last leaf on a tree, hanging on but eventually gives up the fight. Tom

Ever since O'Henry's story, 'The Last Leaf,' it seem to play an outsize role in literature of all sorts (even mine). Thanks, Tom
