Just A little Change

The heat drained away,

I was so glad.

Chill began to stay,

I wasn’t mad.

_______________________________

Green leaves turned red,

A sight that I can adore.

But it fills me with dread,

That I don’t want to explore.

_______________________________

The smell of smoke disappears,

I miss the delightful smell.

Snow is one of my fears,

Trapping me in my own Hell.

________________________________

Soon the sound of birds left,

Mornings get way too silent.

Leaving my cats bereft,

Leaving the world dormant.

________________________________

A smothering blanket of cold,

Its presence is far too shiny.

It makes me feel so strangely old,

And it has sometimes blinded me.
