Diane Ackerman

Diane Ackerman uses nature as a muse. In her poem, Some would marry winter, she talks about how much she likes spring, even though a lot of people are all for winter. Many adjectives are used in the poem to describe exactly winter, or not even winter, but how winter makes her feel. For her, winter is not just cold in temperature, but the whole season just has this depressing, cold vibe affecting people. On the other hand, spring and summer are much more joyful.
