Seasons (A collaboration with mattavellli)

Collaboration with mattavelli

SPRING

like the skies at dawn      rain flooding the street

the new year brims with color           sand bags filled by volunteers

and promises warmth          time short to save house

SUMMER

trees catching sunbeams                   heat scorches the earth

paint the land with precious shade     drying the land from the heat

where cool breezes hide                    all creatures suffer

AUTUMN

leaves that loved the sun      leaves vivid color

now welcome the gentle moon          clogging drains as rain falls hard

with striking color        flooding streets and yards

WINTER

flakes flutter lightly      snow falls and piled high

a surprise for morning eyes      roadways clogged with trucks and cars

from cold starry skies      traffic at standstill

Great work, guys... love the format, especially in haiku verses... and you capture the seasons so well!

[Willard Wells]

Thank you FT. The most I can take credit for is half the writing. Matt has a very creative mind and used it on this piece.

[JayceeC]

Duets are neat because they can be separate writes fused together. Love that your take is a bit different, yet the voices blend well. Good job on this you two.

[Willard Wells]

Thank you for your kind words young lady. Your appearance is always welcomed.

[mattavelli]

This is beautiful!!!!
I've never seen such thoughtful writing. Your imagery is so vivid that I feel like I've traveled through and experienced a full year of beauty and drudgery, just by reading this. Well done!!!

[Willard Wells]

Thank you Matt, don't think I could find better words myself. hahaha I know it's sick.

[John Alexander McFadyen]

A duet of senyru with a touch of haiku as you spread the seasons in all their good and bad aspects before the reader.

[Willard Wells]

You have it exactly John. Matt had a great idea for appearance and lay out. Turned out pretty good looking and the words seem to work too. Thanks for the kind words and the visit.

Most all of the credit goes to Mattvelli. The writing was the easy part. He came up with the idea and structure. In addition to writing half of it. I just had to put pen to paper. So glad you like are work. Greatly appreciated.
