November Blues

So, today is November 1st. Yep. There's only two more months left in 2013. That's just scary if you ask me. I just realised that could be taken as a pun as it was Halloween yesterday. I was a cat in case you were wondering. Meow.

November is a month in which not much happens, but the outside world takes the eleventh month as a time for change. In October, the leaves change colour but in November they take the final step of their change. They go for it. They fall to the ground to make space for new leaves next year. They are what tells us that a new year is coming, and new opportunities are just around the corner.

So don't think of November as the boring month in between Halloween and Christmas, think of it as a time of significance that change is happening. Not a bad change, a good change. Read this poem:

Now a poem written by yours truly;

November rain is falling,
Leaves come dancing down.
The sound of wind is calling,
the people in the town.

The people wearing scarves and coats,
preparing for the cold.
In puddles, all leaves sit and float,
They do just as they're told.

Told by the skies,
Seasons come around.
Where the woodland animals lie,
is on the cold, leaf covered ground.

The first two months fly by,
September and October.
But the hope that never dies,
is in the blessed November.

I hope you lovely people have a great November.
