For Crystol Woods' Contest: National Poetry Month, Word Prompts... 11 Apr 25

,How seasons and weather change the way I shiver pleasantly from their anonymous ways--- daring in the heated blisters of summer's flesh, then mysterious through winter's ghost... There's no way to measure each and every cycle's radiance--- I don't know why they are equal in lush revelries, untamed yet graceful along pendulums of time. Still, I thrive, fumble, and journey once again to relish the ambrosial interludes within their galaxy ...without counting the viscous sunsets of fall or spring time carousels: I gaze experientially at life's moments kinetic as brushed winds -- tuck them as magical spells and then begin yet another awakening before plucked midnight shuts down...

Dear Nette, your poem enfolds some outstanding images and phrases like "darning in the heated blisters of summer's flesh", "lush revelries, untamed yet graceful", "pendulums of time"... these are so catchy. Seasons definitely leave an impact on us and you have powerfully expounded it.

Your poem is absolutely beautiful—gentle, thoughtful, and deeply resonant. You've captured the ephemeral nature of seasons and the quiet ways they shape us, not just physically but emotionally and spiritually. Lines like "I thrive, fumble, and journey once again to relish the ambrosial interludes" are just stunning—there’s such a lovely balance of vulnerability and wonder throughout.
