I adore a good fall party, so I assumed that this poem by Becca Klaver would be right up my alley.
And it's fine, I mean, yeah, but I'm just not excited by it. Despite the couplets, I don't find much thrill in this poem's language. What a bunch of boring nouns and verbs.
And really, isn't the real point not that she loves fall parties more than summer ones, but that she loves the present more than the past? I get a 'grass is always greener' vibe from the poem.
But then again, maybe my problem with the poem simply has to do with the silliness of comparing the seasons of parties. Dunno.
Favorite line: "I'll warm your house."
