Seasonality

Petunia looks pallid this cool summer morn
Morose, for the specter of frost
Has scared off the temperance this season had borne
And now she laments what was lost

The sumac are sullen and robin treads eggs
No feathers will be ruffled here
A stiffness has taken control of my legs
It’s obvious winter is near.
