A reflection of the 4 seasons in only 88 words.

Funnily enough, for someone who counts prose words with keen attention, I hadn't given it a thought here. Glad you enjoyed it.

this was a great example of prose

It's more free verse - ie poetry that's not in a particular form (sonnet, for example), or counted, or scanned (sticking to a particular rhythmic pattern). Prose is standard writing. You can get prose poems - it's writing that has poetic leanings and facets but appears in sentences and paragraphs. Pleased you enjoyed my effort and yes, I'll be interested to see what everyone else has conjured up.

A lovely addition to the collection. Well done

Thanks for reading, Gary.

A beautiful tribute, you gave the sun life, with ups and downs, and wins and losses, a stalwart constant in our lives. It's a lovely, poem, northie. Cheers!

You're right, we always look at/for the sun  all throughout the seasons as if it were our guiding star.

My favorite part was

This sun of ours
Conjures up that single
Legendary summer's
Day

Thank you, northie.

I think we all have memories of that one elusive day when the weather was Elysian perfect (or so we remember it 🤨😄).

I'm just getting around to reading the anthology poems and this connected with me.  Maybe more so due to just experiencing a total solar eclipse yesterday!  Thank you.
