Crystal Season

"It's night before it's afternoon. December is here before it's June." Crystals had fluttered to the ground And settled gently all around, White as moistened quilt of feather Upon the pale evening's heather... Bare now after November’s hand Stripped the fields while tints disband, Endowing the trees with light finesse And silver stars of gracefulness. Casarah Nance 's Dr. Seuss Contest by nette onclaud 8/16/2015

I sometimes need patience to wait for the right moment to come. You winged this with your metaphors and scenes of a season to complete its cycles. Masterful!
