>Shakespear's word choice convey's the season by describing how the leaves are falling and only a few are found hanging on the bare limbs. This gives the reader the intention that it is fall. Some people believe that by winter there are no birds flying about and singing a song, and Shakespeare included that. The time and season are significant in this sonnet because it deplicts the mood that Shakespeare felt just walking outside in to the cold. It shows how everything just seemed die just before winter.
