A brevity trails
of life's bounty, engaging
the elements nigh,
be they neath, be they
sides, be they all around, starts
of a summer June
saffron breaths of warmth,
ochered until the leaves fall,
recalls September's
colorful hints tinged
orangey hues soften cools
an autumn breeze cease
harks December snows,
delight sprinkles of white dust
bouts colored lights,
until March begins
a greener spring, another
year starts a new trail.

This type of poem, glory be, is the type that is often selected as POTD---and you have penned it in yet another unusual format, the choka. ~ gw in Chic - AWE -go.

When discovered, I've written such a form, 'FLAMES OF THE EVERGREEN' & 'LOKI'S FALL FROM AESIR', but gave it another format yet this be its truest form GW, Aloha William
