A Poem for November In November's chill, the world turns gold, Leaves of crimson, stories untold. A tapestry of autumn's grace, In every step, a slower pace. The air is crisp, with a hint of frost, As nature's beauty is not lost. Beneath the trees, where secrets lie, Whispers of the earth and sky. The days grow shorter, nights grow long, A time to cherish, a time to belong. By fireside's warmth, we gather near, In November's embrace, there's nothing to fear. Harvest's bounty, a feast for the soul, In November's hands, we find our role. To give thanks for all we hold dear, As we welcome a new, hopeful year. So in this month of amber and gray, Let's savor each moment, come what may. For November's beauty is plain to see, A reminder of life's sweet mystery. 587-974-9830 587-974-9830 info@lccmediafoundation.ca info@lccmediafoundation.ca
