There’s a bird outside my window
Its as small as it can be
A tiny little hummingbird
Staring in at me
Something flutters in the distance
A treat before my eyes
Either autumn’s falling foliage
Or some playful butterflies
The huge oak trees are swaying
Their trunks a graceful bend
As winter solstice brings with it
A strong and hearty wind
The skies have less full sunlight
And instead are sometimes gray
So I need to look for other things
To brighten up my day
A cup of steaming coffee
The comfort of a pet
Reaching out to long time friends
And new ones I just met
Its the season that I’m more in need
Of sharing heartfelt laughs
Also when I’m more inclined
To get back into crafts
Every season brings with it
New and wondrous glees
Today its birds and butterflies
And lots of swaying trees
