A Trip Around the Sun

At winter solstice with Capricorn close
The sun is hidden on the northernmost
It's a time to rest and a time to reflect
It's a gift received when we reconnect

Vernal equinox, when night matches day
Flowers bloom for insects to play
All seems right as we smell the fresh air
New growth all around, we even see deer

Summer solstice at the Cancer ring
Long days are hot or so it seems
Fun and play are at the top of the list
Staying like this is everyone's wish

Leaves start falling at Autumnal equinox
People still out playing and taking walks
The colors are best this time of year
We think of our trip around sun's sphere
