A Kaleidoscope of Seasons

Snowy dusks of silver skies; frosty windowpanes; icy diamonds on the trees; pearleascent country lanes. Bursts of amesthyst and pink on plum and cherry trees; nodding bluebells; azure skies; lavender’s the breeze! Poppies razzle dazzle red beneath sun’s amber rays; green’s the grass till withered brown on fiery summer days. Smells and sunsets cinnamon; that orange pumpkin hue; russet foilage and gold leaves till winter’s rendezvous! Aug. 22, 2021 for Chantelle Anne Cooke's Kaleidoscope Poetry Contest For 'A BRIAN STRAND PREMIERE no 1204' Poetry Contest
