the season of descent
when summer’s raiment falls to earth
wilting life is giving birth
corn husks litter stubble fields
winter moans the fall it yields
fallow nests await next spring
summer sails on eider’s wings
days are lean as sunflowers list
frost clings about in sapphire mist
tulips sleep in pregnant peace
ascension yet beyond their reach
honks announce broad flocks of geese
suet hangs for chickadees
scare-crows mock black-winged beasts
pumpkins bake for harvest’s feasts
choirs of trees stand stark and mum
the season descends..............................awaits the sun

Beautiful post, author beautifully explained nature in words. who does not love nature and anything written for nature is worth reading.
Gosh,
thank you.
I haven't been in this blog for ages.
My muse left me mute of words
then renewed our creation through images.
I invite you to
Bob Wwhitlatch and the Blue Sage Moon.
