Autumn is Near
Autumn is near; listen and you might hear
birds chatter more and cicadas singing.
Asters and bright goldenrod will appear.
Southward bound, the geese in V’s start winging.
Longer grow the nights. You may also see
farmers bustling in their ripening fields.
Days are cooling down degree by degree.
How lovely the bounty late summer yields.
There’s just a certain something in the

Autumn Is Near
Contest : Seasons Now And After
Sponsored by : Nette Onclaud
Date : August 10, 2025
Trails of rain fade at the fringe of summer,
supple northern breeze whispers on its way.
Strands of silver clouds slowly sail away,
graze the ash of end-summer’s smoky sky.
Sunburst horizon spreads gossamer drape,
tepid spectrum emits from slant sunrays.
Birds bathe in

Autumn is Near
As hot summer reluctantly gives way,
Autumn has come closer to the doorway.
In a medley of colors, Earth parades,
And everything is seen in sparkling shades.
Cool n’ crisp, the West wind blows in soft hum.
Dead and decaying leaves fall with bee’s thrum.

Autumn Is Near
The heat still controls,
But it's bound to fold.
It's been a long hot summer,
One I'll long remember.
But summer is growing old
And before long, its bell will toll.
But there's nothing to fear.
Autumn is very near.
Hurricanes may be hard to bare.
But we must do our best to prepare.
Even now, the trees are preparing.
And the leaves are anticipating.
Nature will

- Autumn Is Near -
When the sublime symphony of summer
is about to enter its last movement
The mysterious curtain of magic
Nature transform into golden colors
yellow, orange, red and even purple
Eye-catching spectacular color shades
Walk in the quiet respite of autumn
while breathing in the lovely fresh

Autumn Is Near
Autumn is near ! Summer and rains are gone..
Novel colours removing nimbus cloud.
Dropping curtains on sudden storm and rains.
Now to start shedding withered leaves on Fall.

AUTUMN IS NEAR
Autumn, I feel you are coming closer
oh, I have longed for your scented embrace
your falling leaves to decorate my hair
in red, yellow, orange and burgundy
and my favorite is enchanting gold
we will dance through your fresh crackling carpet
under the moon and in the gusty wind
oh, your foliage is divine my love
we even dance like

AUTUMN IS NEAR
Can you feel something is about to change,
is it in the air everywhere you turn?
Much cooler mornings and nights are coming,
less sunshine each day for us to enjoy.
Days getting shorter with less time to play,
nights are getting longer with more darkness.
Trees are turning into pretty colors,
colorful leaves will soon be falling down.
Squirrels working very hard

Autumn is Near
I'm at my keyboard as I remember
a long ago dawning of September.
Who would have thought that a once youthful lad
would encounter summer's end and be glad?
He enjoyed all the freedom and the play,
given a boy on each extended day.
But now, was ready to return to school,
a sentiment not oft' considered cool.
To see the

When Its Petals Draw Near
A missile’s disguise is a flower
magnetic, a whiff of its power
Yet when its petals draw near
a new odor appears

Is the time of our departure from earth near part two
O how it is so very clear that our departure in rapture's flight of 777
Is alas also so very near and it could be departing any moment of
Every single solitary day. That is why Jesus tells us "fear not and
Don't be afraid." When I am coming for my children in the middle
Of that
