Poetry and Bohemian Rhapsody
I'm reminded how impactful one line in a song can be, especially when it reaches out to you as the last crescendo is dying. One song, Queen's 'Bohemian Rhapsody,' comes to mind. "Hit me where the wind blows," comes low and soft, almost inaudibly. I feel poetry can similarly capture that magic.

The poem I just penned attempts to encapsulate the purpose and tone of the narration...

STATIC
When Autumn Comes Open in new Window. (E)
Associating death with each season because of love lost, never returning.

I used italic for the final line like Freddie Mercury modulated his voice to inflict feeling to give pause.

Happy National Poetry Day
