Beaty of the seasons

Virgil Sturgeon 1931 (Iowa)



While strolling through the countryside
   Upon the hills I see
In red ,brown , green and amber hues
    Miss autumn's lingerie
Will wonders never cease to be  ?
    Tis magic to behold
The way that GOD has blended
All the red , green , brown and gold
    Yet ! Autumn's just anouther sign
Dame winter's coming nie
      TO spread her silvery , Ermine cloak
Around us from on high
      And in her long and stormy reign
A great new year is born
      With a loving personality
Buds and blossoms shall adorn
      There's some I fear that never  see
These treasures that abound
       And yet the only secret is
Lift your eyes and look around
