A November Garden

Message 2904 of 6476

Some colorful leaves still cling to trees
Though many more have gone bare

Cardinals are no longer crimson
The Robin Redbreast does not thrill
And the bloom has gone off this rose

They will all return to resplendency
When spring arrives again

But I shall not

Still, there is something to be said
For a finite life

we all are coming to grips in various stages with that "finite life"..
there is a satisfaction at times that come with knowing we were allowed our time in the "November Garden" or any garden for that matter
Happy Thanksgiving, Crinda

. . . 'resplendency' comes in many forms . . .
