Crimsons Creative Challenge #009 #Signs of Autumn

A story told in red and gold

of seasons change, increasing cold

through Autumn, life prepares its bed

for deep slumber through the dread

dark days of the waning sun

till Winter with her icy grip

and frosty flicking tongue that nips

at glistening nose, dark paws and claws

of those who venture out of doors

in search of food or just for fun
