Quarter Season...

- Treetops whistle and sway, rustling leaves across the frigid earth. Sunlight- sparse and spotty as patches of clouds sail through, determining the placement of shadow.
- A clear view between the pines and over the lawn, tell of the season, even through a quick window glance. Deceiving can be the adornment of this quarter, with sunshine of plenty but often paired with bone chilling winds having more than harsh temperament.
- Much liked stroll abouts and meanderings do not come so often, as being weathered in such an extensive mannerism, is not gentle nor always pleasant.
- The ground crackling beneath footsteps, passing scents of fiery warmth, layers of clothing atop bundles of clothing outfitting scurrying folk. ** Where shall I pass my day? Amidst the tranquil familiarity of my own space? Or perhaps over a temperature appropriate cup of joe, harboring the corner table at the local coffee shop?? I'm sure to be found and lost in envisioning, observing noises and pondering over these thoughts. If your aim to seek be successful, your company joining mine, would be most gratifying....

Great piece, the title reminded me of the Christmas carol

[Kate H]

Lol, I can see how. I'm still pondering over a proper title for this one. Suggestions welcomed :)

[Luke L]

I hate titles altogether, I just choose something from within the piece, that`s my best idea :p

I, for one, am soooo glad to hear someone besides myself say that they do not care for titles! In general conversation, I tell anyone who doesn't write that to me, the title and the first line are the hardest things about writing a poem. Thank you for your time and suggestions. They really are most appreciated. :)

titles should be something someone with easily associate with the piece. Like when people title something a phrase that is nowhere in the piece, it is just stupid to me. There are thousands of examples but songs should almost always be named after part of the chorus. "Bad Touch" by the Bloodhound Gang should be called "Discovery Channel"

[Kate H]

Again, I couldn't agree more! Even in saying that I'm not entirely sure where from or how, the name "Bad Touch," came about. Good example, dear writer. Reviews, suggestions and the like, are so much more than appreciated.

I liked the sincerity and the aftertaste this one left within.

Thank you, Chris. This style of writing is most definitely different from the rest. Kind of a new take for me on this one.
