Through All Seasons

Colorful is the gloaming of hues , As russet, peach, and orange infuse The brushes of crystal fallen leaves; While old maples sway in icy breeze Till autumn ends with a frosted sigh-- Unpredictable as time ‘s goodbye. Nature dares her one last valiant reel Adorning winter its fine appeal; Nights melancholy soon become crisp Dew on moon imbues a gleeful wisp: Pathos turns into a lightened shade When the white of pristine tones cascade… How life content drifts forevermore Through all seasons , each a wondrous lore. .................................. John Hamilton's Eight word challenge-3 Contest 8/16/2017
