This week’s post comes to you courtesy of one Ellie Allan, who is far more clever and creative than I’ll ever be.

Guess Which Season

Guess which season makes you smile
When you make a big leaf pile?
And to stay warm you hold a mug
Or share a cozy hug?

Guess which season leaves a spread
Of yellow, orange and red?
An in the crisp air you desire
A nice, toasty fire?

Which of the four makes days short
But brings forth the greatest sport?
A sport in which you bump and serve
And to face a spike takes nerve.

Which of the four do squirrels jump
To hide acorns in a stump,
As we store, or bundle, or play
We sense the cold at bay?

Have you made a guess or two?
'Tis autumn (you know it's true)!
Enjoy its glory while it's here
For frost is next this year.
