Natures Clock

Green leaves tumble to
the ground crunching
under footsteps. Soon
they will turn colors
on trees and begin
there cycle. Baby birds
now confident on there
own having fledged some
time back. Flowers producing
less blooms, the sunsets
appearing earlier, all
signs of natures clock
ticking. Let me go rest
now they say, i will return
come spring, stronger
bigger with my display
tic, tic, tic
