Wow! Thanks for sharing this picturesque muse of yours, making me visualize and see the beauty of the four seasons, since I haven't actually experienced them... being a resident of the Tropics. Likewise, thanks for the excellent example of "tercets." God bless you.

wow, what a gorgeous write and example for us, Constance. So it seems line X is six syllables. I must not have read the rules carefully enough. This is a FAVE for me.
