A change in the air, a hint of unease

A cold wind blows, tearing at leaves

The sun is gone, clouds hiding its face

My lungs seize, my heart starts to race

Paths become rivers, rivers they rise

Water descends, it falls from the skies

Blue becomes gray, gray becomes white

The ocean churns, darkness coming from light

Sea waves crash, tree trunks groan

Branches rattle, the wind starts to moan

But do not despair, all is not lost

As with all things, there is both benefit and cost
