Seasons

seasons so swiftly change their hues around,
each has a wondrous beauty to bestow
in glory like a queen who's newly crowned.

plants spring,green shoots emerging from the ground
forget me nots in blue profusion grow
seasons so swiftly change their hues around.

midsummer and the thirsty lawns are browned
and roses bloom,their crimson shades aglow
in glory like a queen who's newly crowned.

leaves fall,red,golden, brown and swirling round
as autumn winds do fiercely gust and blow
seasons so swiftly change their hues around.

As winter's chill sweeps in with scarce a sound
and whiteness blankets all in sparkling snow
in glory like a queen who's newly crowned.

confounding or astounding,change abounds
life's patchwork pattern varies to and fro
seasons so swiftly change their hues around
in glory like a queen who's newly crowned.


I'm enjoying trying new poetry forms. This is my attempt at a villanelle and made it to the featured board of fifteen minutes of fiction. To craft with words in writing ,or attempting to write poetry is something I'm really enjoying .I'm also enjoying reading some great writing by other members of fifteen minutes of fiction.
