End of November

The grass is dull brown the ground rocky hard From fair visions of Springtime has sprung a graveyard Clumps of leaves rest in puddles in murky pools on sidewalks Caught in cracks of chipped pavement no way to turn the clock back To halcyon days when the earth was alive ~ Nor plunged in darkness at quarter to five

The end of November is indeed bleak, and love your description of 'graveyard' and 'murky pools' - at least the winter months may bring calm and rest, hopefully~

Thank you, Michelle... and I'm with you. Perhaps the winter months will be calmer. Don't see how they could be angst-ridden than were the summer and early Fall months, but you never know in life. Here's to Hopin' ~ gw
