November calls for my attention autumn is drawing to final A trembling aspen naked the leaves are autumn's spoils Cool air hits the cheek the clear flames fade Hibernates gray shroud sad 06.11.2022 Sun :) - A-L Andresen :) Copyright © All Rights Reserved A November Nonet Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Andrea Dietrich (howmanysyllables.com) 5rd place in the contest

The fallen leaves and the naked aspen are a clear sign that November and autumn are both on the way out. Soon, that cool air will be much colder. ~ Sending you warm regards brighten the atmosphere, my friend! Hugs // paul

November is colorful and gloomy all at once. The bright hues make us happy, but the withering leaves and naked trees leave us sad. Great nonet, dear Smile. All the Best... ! Love and hugs!
