Death of Summer

 


Little flowers, beware!


The King of Frost has come


You shake and gasp for air


And your fragile bodies go numb


 


The evil times are here


The sun has lost its power


Petals weeping, full of fear


Air stills and darkness towers


 


The warm summer breeze is gone


Replaced by harsh, cold, lethal gusts


That scatters birds, bees and even the fawn,


Stripping all to grey with murderous lust


 


Alas! All living is covered with death


Dark, cold, not even a light’s ray


Valleys lay tranquil under a wintry sheath


In wet graves do its treasures lay
