Seasonal Change

Summer heat resides Wetting our skin with its dew Play time is all ours Autumn winds then blow Giving lift to the dead leaves Colors fill our eyes Winter then attacks With its brutal chill and freeze As cheeks turn crimson Then there’s the rebirth As Spring allows us new life Flora comes alive

You captured the change of seasons well in this haiku series. I especially like the spring stanza--maybe because it is my favorite season. Thank you for sharing this poem with us and for your kind words regarding mine. Have a good day! Karen

Wow, very similiar to what I do with tankas, make a series to weave a poem. Beautifully written and magical. Nice use of personification, too. Regards, Sara:)

Lovely poem, Michael. It's filled with hope and beauty, especially for us who are affected by the ravaging wild fires in California. We will welcome new growth in the spring...God willing. Thank you for reminding me of my poetry terms ....I'm a novice at poetry, and I had mixed up my Quatrain and Haiku, and I was glad to have the reminder! I appreciate any help! I'm still a work in progress! Thank you , fondly...Carrie
