november


No sun - no moon!
No morn - no noon -
No dawn - no dusk - no proper time of day.
No warmth, no cheerfulness, no healthful ease,
No comfortable feel in any member -
No shade, no shine, no butterflies, no bees,
No fruits, no flowers, no leaves, no birds! -
November!

Thomas Hood ~ 1884


Two more days until the election. Don't forget to vote, early and often!

OK, but there's Thanksgiving! And football games! And now that the leaves are dropping, you can see how beautiful the bones of the trees are. And I like rain. Great photo, by the way (pomegranates being another November blessing), but I can't work out where it was taken . . . around here?

Thanks to you and Mr. Hood ~ I couldn't agree more!
