The Murderess of Summer
By brook_rivers
26 September 2006
Lazy writers contribution.......and its very lazy as i haven't quite finsihed it yet. Only a rough sketch of the idea really.

The murderess of summer

The golden goddess of nature


Veiling the world from the sun

And drawing us towards darkness


Along the way protecting the world

From summers heat with a leafy canopy


Guiding her chariot into winters gloom
And into his cruel, icy clutches

But firstly sharing the warm, rich,

Exquisite shades of her seasons colour

For a rough sketch of an idea, really very good I'd say. Like the way you've personified the seasons, although I'd have had Autumn male and Winter female. Perhaps it's a gender perspective! 
 
Particularly liked: And drawing us towards darkness. 
 
How I hate dark days. Go to work in the dark, return in the dark. 
 
Any ideas for next month? 
 
All the best, 
 
Phil.
