SEASONS

SEASONS

Soon the leaves will start to turn
From green to golden hues;
As once again the clock falls back
Reminding me and you:
We are all like seasons
Blowing in the wind
We are now entering
'Autumn', my dear friends.

Soon the ghosts and goblins
Will knock upon our door;
Just after Thanksgiving
When we eat food, galore.
Next is Christ's birthday
And Auld Lang Syne we'll sing;
As New Years starts once more
And winter begin's again.

Seasons of our existence
Marked by these events;
Leaves, flowers, berries
It all makes perfect sense.
Our time together's precious
These seasons of our life;
A glance into the future
Can cut one like a knife!

Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas
New years most of all;
Traditions that are timeless
One's we all recall.
The best memories are "moments"
We choose to spend together;
Not the wasted years and tears
That just keep some together.

One day our season's over
The leaves will not turn;
The clock will stop ticking
What will we have learned?
Trick or treat? It's Halloween
Turkey for Thanksgiving;
Santa Claus is still alive
New Year's a new beginning.

Let us cherish Autumn
As we look ahead to find:
Winter still awaits us
Though summers far behind.
Seasons of our life
Summer, Spring and Fall;
Winter is the ultimate
Our final curtain call.
