November

O November, you are one of the twelve stepping stones in a year, created as an element in 
the cycle of time.


Without you Thanksgiving and a transition to colder days would be absent.

Without you that one day every year on which I age, would never occur.


We are people, speaking to the world of your importance and of the essential role you play 
annually. 


I ask you to come around at least once a year, and not to be late.

I promise to make your presence quite pleasant and worthwhile, for I will celebrate each day 
of your being here to the fullest extent.
