Cold November Day

trees barren and laden clouds on a cold november day the waves are high and waters murky still so solemn our bench a relic the raging river faces the mistiness of a distant memory not letting go though seems so long ago AP: 2nd place 2021 Submitted on June 1, 2020 for contest BRIAN'S SELECT sponsored by BRIAN STRAND Originally posted on January 23, 2019

Nice imagery, Line, and whoa, would I give anything to see a bench or 'water murky'---what with Lake Michigan starting to freeze over in places with the cold snap going on... Thanks for the memories. :) gw

I think I'm still in that atmosphere and it's no longer November!

I wish the feeling would come and go at will, ML. No such luck.

"our bench a relic".....you can never go back. I have tried, and it is never the same, my friend, even when you hope it might be.
