Foul Weather Warning

Trees shed their glory,

As squirrels fill their pantries.

The weather changes.

Southward bound birds give warning,

Soon winters' breath will freeze all.

Thank you Ed and Anne.
Yes, Carol, but winter comes much too soon!

How many ways we get the message of "foul weather", Virginia. Excellent choice of details for your Tanka.

Nicely done, Moya
