[hometext] => a cold dark november day it is.....
[bodytext] => the color of rust against slate gray skies and mountains deep purple shadows where is the sunlight? casting about behind low clouds the threat of rain or maybe snow cold permeates the day leaves scuttle in the wind i am cold solemn this time of year the last days before winter comes to throw its white blanket down the snow queen with her silver eyes regal and waiting for jack frost to fly make way for her highness the chimney smoke curls down welcoming her with a gentle bow the fields lay naked grieving the birds head south take leaving as a matter of fact decision to avoid the cold hand of her royal highness and i walk the long road to town hear the neighbor's children squeal jumping in the leaves of brown calling the dog, ole jack, come along and hurry back to start the fires up tonight chase away this damp and chill for winter sleep comes by at four with darkness falling round the door put the kettle on to boil sit around the hearth and hum songs of summer days gone by merry [comments] => 2 [counter] => 159 [topic] => 27 [informant] => Merry [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => NaturePoetry )
