SEASON CHALLENGE.....
Through the timid, autumn day sun
Tree's clad branches, breeze may run
Gold's and red's, instead of green
Speckled beacons, not summer supreme
Curled and scattered, leaves fly free
Escaping from tethers, secure on trees
Changing scene, heavy rain now soaked
Soon branches naked, not foliage cloaked
Dull-brown, will surround a winters earth
Until the springtime, for a season's birth
Only then will warmth, fresh sunshine send
Stirring flower seeds, as nature's friend
To enjoy seasons, as they adapt during time
Numbering four, without defining clear lines
Overlapping to merge, whether south or north
Both hemispheres rotate, nature brings forth
Life and death will play, their separate parts
As nature performs, like a creature's heart
Turnover of seasons, nature's rhythm alive
Every aspect of creation, as an oceans tide
Whether mountains or valley's, beauty supreme
Gift to all human-animals, a privilege seen
Knowledge that this gift, can be taken away
Change of attitude now, challenge of today
