rust-coloured fingers write obituaries
in a hundred shades of sky,
smothering summer's dusk with
winter's pale and frosted breath
nimbus clouds fold their tears
beneath feathered skirts,
sighing over autumn's faded halo
and spring's capricious perfume
nature bends to kiss gravity's hand
as she waits.

You've personified the scene beautifully. These words are as lovely as you are, my dear friend.
I hope your weekend's fine and your study's going swell. Alas, I think mine's fizzled out already.
