I looked out on the back, there was a young doe under the maples, a shaft of sunlight through the trees despite the clouds above – as if out a master\u2019s painting of a forest scene, but there is already a scattering of gold and red leaves<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Autumn Approaches<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Speckled sunlight filters through the trees,
A young doe walks slowly along,
And songbirds in the tree above
Sing a summer morning song.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But the morning is cool, this summer morn,
The first leaves have already turned,
Some red, some gold they litter the yard,
Has autumn already returned?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The hummingbirds still buzz about,
The Cicada choir still in full voice,
Summer holds on for a few more weeks,
But autumn approaches, we have no choice\u2026
