My biggest problem with it is that it takes Autumn away from me, a crime for which I have difficulty forgiving it. :-)thefoolishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07381643121079932633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4037831997458189008.post-54848210625863160922011-11-10T14:54:35.725-08:002011-11-10T14:54:35.725-08:00Ethan,

Though geographically opportune folks to the north may take umbrage. The films of Bergman, the work of Pasternak, and the poetry of Frost all portray a different, more visceral image of winter. A time of introspection, of taking stock of one's life, a hiberation of hope to directly confront worth and meaning.

It is a fantastic use of the lanquage, but it became a historical football of dubious influence.
