A crisp winter’s day,
And ever changing skyline
– glistens in sun and snow.
Crocus pushes through,
Butterflies and bees pollinate
– Spring has returned
Under blinding sun,
Heat radiates off pavement
– skin burns and blisters
Orange, red and gold,
Autumn leaves crunch under foot
– Jack’O’Lanterns smile.
