December Goodbye: A Daina

December Goodbye: A Daina*

One year’s now down to one chilled month
with crisp wind as cold as my heart
brought by your December goodbye.
A clean slate named change, I will try.

In response to Daily Post: Clarity and Napowrimo Day 4.

 

Today I challenge you to write a poem in which you explore what you think is the cruelest month, and why.

*Daina

The Daina is:

• a single quatrain.
• metered, dactylic or trochaic tetrameter. All lines usually end on unstressed syllables.
• unrhymed though alliteration and rhyme can naturally appear.
