Equinox

Un-troubled sleep
Sheet alone was not enough
Half wrapped in blanket's keep.
Winter's gradual approach
Is not a sudden leap.

Rise at five, from sleep lifted
Night's dark not broken yet
Dawn's appearance has been shifted
Clock change will goof that up
When with "fall back" we are gifted.

I look forward to the snow.
"Argh!" I hear you shout.
It's not for you, I know.
I'll be satisfied for now
With the fallen leaves that blow.
