Letting Go Like November
As October's ripened leaves
Reluctantly flutter and fall to the ground
So do her fragments and feelings
Of hope and possibility
Despite the shrouded, woolen veil
Pulled over otherwise-tempted eyes
That sacred bond between exists
Amidst heartstrings' tug and twinge
Mother Nature heeds her perfect timing
Signaling autumn's graceful end
Routine, perpetual and old-fashioned
Winter's wonderland begins
She too, must allow herself some space
To hold those longing thoughts that linger
Then, with kind and tender, loving care
She lets them go like November
