 Four Seasons ~ A Compilation of Kyrielles & Kyrielle Sonnets by Linda L. Dowd & Alison Fall’s Final Days Kyrielle by Alison The leaves have turned a bitter red And woods smell like slow rotting dead With rancid odors in the air. The winter brings fresh views to share. These stripped down branches will be white. The moon will glow will special light. When darkness seems too much to bear, The winter brings fresh views to share. The beaver work in wooded dens And tree limbs fill with grousing hens. Fox sneaking, hunting Snowshoe hare; The winter brings fresh views to share. Falling Snow Kyrielle Sonnet by Linda L. Dowd December wears a mantle white. The air is crisp this winter’s night. Thru’ amber rays of lamplight glow ~ stream crystal flakes of falling snow. Across an opalescent sky, a Great Horned Owl goes winging by. Thru’ cedar bows in brumal blow ~ stream crystal flakes of falling snow Tho’ standing high on Beacon Hill, I’m wrapped in warmth ~ no winter chill. Thru’ wooded valley far below ~ stream crystal flakes of falling snow. Thru’ winter scenes from long ago ~ stream crystal flakes of falling snow. Spring is Nigh Kyrielle by Linda L. Dowd Loud thunder rumbles through the hills. The rain flows over country rills. The lightning streaks the roiling sky. Farewell to winter ~ spring is nigh. Spring showers help the plant-life grow. The earth drinks deep from shower flow. Returning geese go winging by. Farewell to winter ~ spring is nigh. Dull browns and grays will soon be green. The rivers, streams are cool and clean. The flowers bloom and grass grows high Farewell to winter ~ spring is nigh. Summer Gifts Kyrielle Sonnet by Alison The roses dip and dance in pink Among the honey bees who drink The nectar from the blossoms sweet ~ as summer offers nature’s treats When breezes gently stir the leaves And robins call from cherry trees The woodpecker will peck a beat ~ as summer offers nature’s treats The thunder showers shower rain And puddles form from spilling drains Small children play with muddy feet ~ as summer offers nature’s treats A time that sunlight spills with heat ~ as summer offers nature’s treats *+* |

Dear Alison ~ Our poems blended very well together ~ if I do say so myself. Balladeer had a great idea when he asked up to continue on and write two more seasons. ~ and then your suggestion of us putting them all together in one post was a stroke of genius! I'm pleased that you are pleased with the presentation. It was a pleasure to put it together. Magic happens under the tutelage of Balladeer in the Poetry Workshop! I am truly enjoying the lessons and the comaraderie! Love 'n hugs, Linda xo |

Dear Linda and dear Alison, your beautiful, creative minds have gifted us with a delightful co-operation on the seasons in this lovely form. I enjoyed you both very much and it is a joy to see Balladeer's enthusiasm for his great "students" in the workshop. Fantastic work! Love you both. Margherita |

I loved your compilation of both words and graphics. Good job. I thought that all of your creative pieces brought out the wonderful colors, atmospheres and beauty of the different seasons very, very well. Thanks for sharing and God bless, -Bob |

 (does happy dance) Although spring is my absolute favorite season because it sums up best all the wonderful things that life offers to us all when you live with hope and faith through the sometimes trying autumn and winter, I appreciate all four seasons in their own ways and believe there is a strange beauty to each one! (group hibiscus hug) This is a wonderful collaborative wonder, dearest friends, I thank you wholeheartedly for sharing this!
