Answer:

D, Fall or Winter.

Step-by-step explanation:

xXMonkey here, I believe the answer is D because,

A: It mentions YELLOW LEAVES. Yellow leaves appear in fall.

B: The poem mentions some key words. COLD, BARE, LATE, and SHAKE give off Winter or Autumn vibes.

Sorry for the capital letters, I just wanted to point things out. xXMonkey out!
