Seasons

I love crisp autumn leaves when they come tumbling down, but beach trees lose their gown as windy weather thieves the forest floor receives dry leaves of red and brown As winter turns to spring new foliage will grow daffodil flowers glow I’ll hear the blackbirds sing see fledglings take to wing and lambs in the meadow All seasons are sublime but I’d chose sweet spring time 6 syllables per line checked with HMS HexSonnetta Poetry Contest Sponsored by Emile Pinet 03/28/21

We always find lambs in your meadow! I love that! And the blackbirds sing - the red-winged blackbird I fell in love with :) Congratulations, Jan!

I agree with what you say here, Jan; all seasons have much to offer, but in my case I find it hard to come to terms with the cold of winter!! ~ Regards & hugs // paul
