November Celebration

By John I. Blair 

 

Bees, butterflies, birds,
Bushy tailed squirrels
Fill my morning world today;

Seed pods hang
From old milkweed stems;

Yellow leaves and brown
Come flying down
From plums, elms, oaks ;

Acorns and pecans
Lay buried deep for winter;

While over all the blue sky
Sings with November sunshine,
Defying December cold.
