November

November, how you usher in
The somber days of seasons past
As autumn's colors fade to din
And nature's forces ebb at last
Your thirty days, a solemn pretext
For somber thoughts and reverie;
A time to mourn what one neglects,
To cherish and to find mercy. -
November's Chill

A time of change, a season rare.

For November truly is a time of beautiful things. -
A Time Of Transition
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
November, a time of transition and grace,
A month that holds a unique place.
As the year draws closer to its end,
November whispers, "Reflect and mend."
Leaves fall gently, painting the ground,
In hues of amber, red, and brown.
Nature sheds its vibrant attire,
Preparing for a season to inspire.
The air grows crisper, colder each day,
And daylight slowly fades away.
November's chill reminds us true,
To seek warmth in the things we do.
It's a time for gratitude and thanks,
For counting blessings, filling love's banks.
With hearts open wide, we gather near,
To share laughter, joy, and cheer.
November carries stories of the past,
Of heroes brave and memories that last.
It's a reminder to honor and remember,
Those who've walked this path, each November. -
Cherish The Blessings
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
November, the month when gratitude blooms,
Thanksgiving approaches, with joyful tunes.
Days may grow shorter, nights may grow cold,
But our hearts warm with stories that never grow old.
As autumn's beauty fades, a new season draws near,
December brings Christmas, a time of love and cheer.
But the 11th month of November, its essence remains,
A reminder to cherish the blessings life sustains. -
Be Thankful
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
November's chill drifts in the air,
Days grow short, nights long and bare.
Leaves have fallen, death is near,
As we reflect on life this year.
Remembrance Day calls us to pause,
And honour those who fought for our cause.
A somber month, but also a chance,
To be thankful for life's sacred dance. -
Oh, November
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
November, oh November,
A month that's quite absurd,
The trees are bare and shivering,
And the skies seem quite disturbed.
It's time to bring out woolens,
Gloves and shawls galore,
Even if they make us look
Like mummies from days of yore.
The days grow shorter every week,
And nights get longer too,
It may seem like a gloomy spell,
But let's laugh the winter blues anew! -
A Month Of Goodbyes
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
November, the month of desolate gloom,
Memories of summer now a distant room.
Leaves fall lifelessly to the ground,
A fleeting beauty, never to be found.
Days grow shorter, nights cold and long,
A mournful dirge, a melancholy song.
Barren trees sway with woeful sighs,
November is a month of goodbyes.
