Autumn is a sassy season
She flips her skirts over the trees —
They blush from what she reveals

Spring is shy and flushes coyly
With the promises of things to come —
The meadows respond with bounty

Summer is brazen with an in-your-face attitude
She flashes all lusty and torrid —
Everything burns beneath her passion

Winter is enchanting
Seeking out hidden places to caress with her icy fingers —
The land is blanketed under her alabaster beauty
