the air is growing colder still
the night with it doth bring a chill

preparations we have begun
for when we shall see less sun

food in store for winter's freeze
wood to banish coldish breeze

cuddly blankets on the line
thinking of when we have more time

for snuggly reading sessions soon
and gazing through the owl moon

a new season is coming nigh
the present one is slipping by

the cycle revolving once again
exclusive to the Master's Plan
