This senryu, Seasons of Change, uses fifteen syllables to bring us the sad picture of our summer of frolic replaced by the deathlike embrace of winter. A bit depressing.

This senyru describes aging very well, objectively rather than subjectively.
You set the scene very well in lines 1 & 2,
Line 3 makes the whole presentation symbolic. Nicely drawn.
