Skaespeare's diction conveys the season because you can actually picture the scene in your mind. He describles the yellow leaves hanging on the bare trees against the cold and you can tell it's fall. He describes how the season is changing quickly to winter. Time and season are significant in this sonnet becaue it is representing the dying process of a loved one. Time is described as the sun going down to night fall like the person slowly dying. Winter shows how everything is dead, just like Shakespeare's lost loved one.
