Ahhh November!

Ahhh November!!!

Trees almost bare now as chilly winds blow,

Great pots of soup being simmered with love,

Aroma of bread being baked in the oven,

Outside chores are finished and the gardens

put to rest, as inside, candles are being lit to

ward off early dusk and bring light into our homes.

The trunks are opened and warm blankets taken

out...to air on clotheslines on a sunny day.

Leaves are crisp underfoot or wet with rains,

as they blow into doorways bringing good luck's

name.  We remain busy gathering all that we need,

for the upcoming season of snow and the 'freeze,'

that inevitibly comes as we put Autumn to rest.

November...a time for gathering of family and friends,

a time of being thankful for the blessings of the year,

for sharing great conversation, or a book or two, and

a hand-up for those who need it (which should be

everyday of the year.)  A time for hot chocolate, with

dollops of whipped cream, for pies baked and cooling

and a great meal shared.  A time for deep introspection,

for warm sweaters and coats and a changing of clocks

gaining us another hour of sleep.  Ahhh November!

How great you are!  As important in time as all other

months of the year!  I am grateful to embrace you as

the Sun comes up this morning!  Another day in which

to be grateful for my body, my breath, all those that

I love, for warm homes, hearts, and sacredness...and

the adventure of what today will bring!  I am grateful

for animals large and small which bring me lessons if

I pay attention to them all.  I'm grateful, great-fully

blessed and rich beyond measure, Thank You November

for your pleasurable treasures!!!

Here's wishing for You a day of adventure, the deep

aroma's of life and all that it brings...and lots of Love

for what You bring to me in kind words and friendship.

Thank You Great Mystery for just....E V E R Y T H I N G!!!

A'HO!
