David Kavanagh Poet Lay

Remember November

And so it comes, this time of year 
        November starts, Christmas so near
        Animals yawn, sense their big sleep
     Farmers hay sheds, piled high and steep
       A breeze descends, from arctic climes
          Cold and icy, brief days less time 

         Great pines snuggle close together 
       Know what’s in store, snowy weather 
        The bison coats, grow much thicker 
           Suns going down, even quicker 
         Silent nights, reflect lonely streams
           Only broken, by coyote screams
