I got thinking about a song by John Denver. It's off his 1972 album Rocky Mountain High and it's part of the Season Suite called Fall. I just love the colorful phrasing that he uses.
Reflections in the water like shadows in my mind
Speak to me of passing days and nights and passing time
The falling leaves are whispering, winter's on its way
I close my eyes remembering the warmth of yesterday
It seems a shame to see September swallowed by the wind
And more than that it's oh so sad to see the summer end
And though the changing colors are a lovely thing to see
If it were mine to make the change I think I'd let it be
But I don't remember hearing anybody asking me
