SEASONS

Sun is high in sky.
Your thermostat set on max...
Lizard gets a tan!

‘Tis time when leaves fall;
Dappled light on dappled leaves.
Carpets of speckle!

Welcome bright white days,
Deep freeze ushers your deep sleep.
Creatures wear thick fur!

Blossoms and buds peek!
Colour festival erupts,
Birds singing sweetest!
