They all tell me it's a good reason

"You actually get to see the snow"

Yeah, it literally and metaphorically blows

"You get to see the fall too!"

The leaves change quickly and are gone too soon.

"The summers must be nice at least!"

You try dealing with humidity and heat

The stillness, an absence of sound.

That ship has sailed, or has it run aground?

My ideas are incomplete?

I could try better to work without rhymes, but without those what will I find?

Creativity?

New ideas to build upon?
