forrest foliage

bare winter

long sleep

energy conserved

fallen leaves

slowly rotting

discarded branches

mycelium food

spring arrives

milder temperatures

longer days

waking trees

buds appear

new growth

Summer time

full foliage

flowers blossom

complete canopy

fruits appear

animals consume

happy forrest

summer over

cooler nights

shorter days

growth stops

leaves turn

vibrant colors

fall splender

forever changing
