December 2017 - Goodbye Old Year Divided into months is our Earth year, and January was the first new page. Month two, cold February, did appear, then left as March blew in to take the stage. Soon, April came on pussy-willow feet, and month of May unfolded blossoms soon. Our phase of June delivered summer's heat; July enhanced the summer song of June. The next months saw our seasons take a turn; the shift to August led to summer's end. When cool September bowed to fall's concern, October stirred her brilliant autumn blend. November's chill of winter soon gave rise. December's here, with end-of-year goodbyes. Sandra My Haight ~7th Place~ Late December Premiere Contest Sponsored by Brian Strand Judged: 12/22/2017

What can I say? This poem is very beautiful, though to say that seems clichéd. There is such an essence of longing, at least it seemed so to me. The rhyme and verse is so flowing and perfect. It's wonderful!
