Phyllis Babcock Poet Free verse

November

November you entered with gale strong winds
Blowing snow and spitting cold rain
You hid the sun behind dark gray clouds
Dampening my spirits as the day crawled on
Dreary and mundane like evening dusk
You sprinkled gloom before afternoon
Snow slowly drifted and touched earth
Giving the month of November new birth

Robert Pettit November 6, 2013 at 4:34 PM The only reason why I like the month of November is that my birthday is the twenty-first day of that month. You have described the typical weather expected of November very well here.

Andrea Dietrich November 6, 2013 at 3:59 PM thanks for your recent comments, and it sounds like you got about as many trick or treaters as we did.

Andrea Dietrich November 6, 2013 at 3:58 PM you really caught the essence of NOvember. this is just how it is in Utah!!

Jerry Bolton November 5, 2013 at 8:09 PM Ahhh . . . The fall of the year makes me smile. Of course I live in the deep South, and don't have to deal with blizzards, although about every ten years we get a little of the white stuff. Sorry the weather has given you the blues.
