Quietus
Created by” Unseeking Seeker,” consisting of one quatrain (syllable count 8-6-8-6 with a rhyme of abab ), one tercet (syllable count 6-6-6 with a rhyme scheme of ccc ), and one refrain with a rhyme scheme of (dd), made from a line of words from line one, how many words is your choice. The refrain is the title.

Freshly fallen flakes frost the land and everything in sight. Nature suddenly seems so bland when whitewashed white on white. Color change completed Autumn has retreated, its pallet depleted. A clean canvas takes freshly fallen flakes. (Quietus) 12/19/2021
