Trifextra Eighty-One

Trifectawritingchallenge.com :  Trifextra Week Eighty-One

So many ideas sprang from the beauty of nature's glory. It was tough summing is all up in a mere 33 words, here's my take:


How can it be, you and me?

Frisbee flown in spring, hot dogs sizzle summer

Rake colorful leaves in fall,

Snow angels in winters deep white cover.

Lucky each season, you’re my lover.

    Don't rake the leaves, just let them compost in place.

      Yay for happiness! I liked the restrictions of the prompt this weekend. It really does seem like way too many of the submissions posted are deep, dark, creepy and depressing. This was a fun write!
