A murky Autumn surrounds us, 
a bleak, plague-ridden Winter
fast approaching.

What happened to Summer?
I hear you ask.
Good question.

Don’t you remember?
We already had it!
Pah! When?

In Spring, of course.
Now, now -
don’t get cross.

The world is changing.
Didn’t you know?
The past is done.

Is there no hope, then?
Ah, do not despair, my friend!
For there is always hope.

Look around you.
Do you not see it?
Are you immune to its power?

Love surrounds us.
Open your heart; feel it. Welcome it.
And the sun will shine once more.
