Seasons quarterly change I love the transition with wild temperature contrasts from hot sizzling sunshine to freezing cold such bliss! Seasons quarterly change new growth appears on trees beautiful flowers start blooming nature rejuvenates days get longer each spring Seasons quarterly change annual vacation on a glorious golden beach enjoy time outdoors in scorching sunshine summer seasons quarterly change foliage starts to fall twirling leaves of red and orange we warm by the fire as nights get colder autumn Seasons quarterly change some bitterly cold days flurries of snowflakes start falling kids build big snowmen and dress warmly in winter Checked with how many syllables each stanza 2,4,6,8,6,4.2 Heptastich Poetry Contest Sponsored by William Kekaula 05/20/21

You are a beautiful poet expressing yourself, and there is no room for negativity on this site dear friend, I hope you ignore ignorant ones, its not worth it, Stay beautiful and strong, keep penning what your heart desires.

An excellent explanation of why Native Americans consider "4" the sacred number instead of "3"! Aloha! Rico

Admire the way you touched eloquently on each season, Jan. Maybe you'll get to spend some of the coming summer on a "glorious golden beach." Best wishes in William's fun contest. Hugs, Carolyn

This is very lovely Jan. I love the four seasons and all that comes with them. I had to smile at your ending thinking of some of the cute and funny snowman I have seen built by playful children and adults. I loved this! Blessings xxoo

Hey Jan, I like this a lot. I don’t know if I’ll ever ‘get’ non rhyme, but if I do, I suspect that this poem will have helped me on that journey. Thanks for the education. Terry
