Never Had it so Good!

Anger, raving mad!
What!  Summer fleetingly gone?
Gosh, never had it so good!

What do I see now?
Brown, unsmiling looking trees!
Cannot wait for White Christmas.
(experimenting with punctuation in poetry)

Note:
1.    Are there those who should
           fail to see the beauty of Autumn?

Written for Chev’s CARPE DIEM " Little Ones" #5
a sedoka, a short poetry form with 2 stanzas of 5-7-7 each

    I can relate to this... here in India too we are waiting for the winter after a torrid summer.

    Waiting... is a strong emotion. Well-written.
