November days are full of words
Falling like leaves upon the ground
Lifeless tumbling
Crisp and brittle
A scattering of ‘sorry’s
Words with little sound
November days are full of words
Gathered together, held so tight
Tear stained letters
Sympathetic
A source of heartfelt comfort
On a damp dark night
November days are full of words
A mountain high, too high to climb
Fearful, fragile
Doubtful, daunting
Stepping forward, reaching up
Leaves the past behind
November days are full of words
Sink deep within, becoming one
Covered over,
Wrapped, enfolded
Nourished, growing, life revealed
New journeys begun
