"Seasons" is a 2022 essay by Madison Scott-Clary written as part of her coursework for her MFA in creative writing at Cornell College. It relies heavily on the use of footnotes while discussing the aspects of seasonality within poetry. The essay was released both as a printable PDF[^pdf] and as a static HTML site.

Autumn bears a strange dichotomy of plenty and impending naught. In Autumn, we harvest. We think of squash and gourds. We think of wheat, rye, corn, those fields all tan and gray. Those rattle-dry stalks we met in spring are born here.

As the year continues on its upward spiral, we come to one of those strange apogees of the longest day. Strange because yes, of course it bears meaning as the longest day, and yet the start of Summer never seems to fall directly on that day, does it? There is doubtless some good reason that, at least here, that is the first day of summer rather than midsummer.
