Summer turns to fall
The wind gets colder
The trees grow older
Life itself seems calm
Like a break between extremes
One of heat
One of cold

With the heat, life is active
Joyous
Adventurous
The days seem longer
And nights shorter
While the heat is appealing
It has itself a killing
Too much fun could lead one to pain

Then there's Peace
Comfort
Cold
Now the desires have changed
The cold makes you stand still
What once was done for thrill
It seems there is no skill
But still,
You dream of that hot wind on your face
The sun sweetly crisping your skin
What was once done, is done
A new season of life has come.
metaphorically speaking, life has many seasons :)
