Fall always feels like a season of both endings and beginnings, doesn’t it? For this week, let’s explore those transitions in a Quadrille—a 44-word poem, a form first shared with us by the wonderful d’Verse Poets Pub.
Your poem can lean into endings, beginnings, or the mix of the two. And if you’d like an extra spark, here’s a thought from Friedrich Nietzsche:
I notice that autumn is more the season of the soul than of nature.
Leaves surrender their green dreams,
whispering ancient secrets to October wind.
I gather fragments of summer's laughter,
tucking them deep beneath my ribs
where memory keeps its sacred fire.
In this golden dying,
I discover how beautifully
we can bloom
even as we fall.
