How summer haze had veiled my days; 
The muted drab of orange leaves 
Made way for winter&#39;s lack of praise, 
And left my quiet life to cease.

Quiet Life

I like the rhythm and imagery here. It’s short but still full of mood and feeling.

I like the melancholy here. The shift from summer haze to winter’s dullness is beautifully captured.
