his word choice really gives away the season because he is talking about things being dark, not much left of the trees or anything
Time and season are significant because thats when things begin to slow down or fall away. shakespeare wants you to understand that something is coming to an end. whether it be life or a relationship. its kind of like spring represents being born, summer is to life, and in this sonnet hes talking about fall which could be the point at which u slow down in life, then winter represents death.
