November Sun

November Sun

The November sun deceives

for in its promise

is little warmth.

No comfort for cold skin

or tired flesh.

Summer gone without a fight,

in creeps the ghost

whose passage leaves

will fall to.

Who descends on us like fog

and brings cloud upon cloud

to sadden the spirit

and drive us to layers of clothes

and a life indoors

with windows closed to nature.

Our seasons are different. It gets extremely hot here in November and everyone's in shorts. This is lovely, no surprises there.

Well wish I was there instead of here as I HATE winter. Thank you Mia.

Winter is the best. You can keep warm in winter. You can wear boats, scarves and coats. All my favourite things to wear! In the summer it’s really hot and you can’t really do anything to cool yourself and you can’t wear boats, scarves and coats. All my favourite things to wear!

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Thank you Dark light. I am more a sun chaser. Should have been a bear and hibernate all winter.

I enjoyed this.. I love the change of seasons, and the smell of Fall, that feeling of it getting colder and change... change is good! well penned :)

I rly love this poem it is in all it's escence very professional and a wonderful piece of art. However it already has a title so there is really no need to put one above the poem as well and the date would probally be better served to be in the description than in the poem. You may want to replace one of those things with a fitting picture that is aesthetically pleasing as to grab the readers attention.
