Summer days have set,
once again.
Falling, faster,
resting on the ground.
One last ray,
then it’s gone.
Summer days have passed,
leaving room.
Chatting, charmer, shhhh,
Just a little longer.
Coffee and brunch,
then it’s gone.
Summer days have gone,
only clouds remain.
Raining, runner, stop!
Too fast, be patient,
Dont stress, relax
then it’s gone.
Summer days have
turned away.
Colourful greys warming
cosy fire Light. Don’t
worry, I’m here.
Winter is excited
to play tag.
Cold, Crashing, hug?
Come on it’s only
dark, too dark.
Wait for me.
Winter is refreshed
Ready to go. Sleep
just a little longer.
Slipping, snoozer, up!
Can’t make it,
Wait for me.
Winter is apathetic
to the sun. Dark
nights, darker, dimmer.
Is this comfort or
Do I feel alone,
Wait for me.
Winter, It will pass
once again. Light
flooding, foolishly
optimistic. Hopeful
I’m here.
