November 2023
at the gold of November sunset and feeling that
if day has to become night, this is a beautiful way.”
— E. E. Cummings”
Let us hope that November will have more stable, less temp
fluctuations, than October did. The Thanksgiving month which none of my
authors mentioned for this issue. We have a dozen poems, quite
different from each other.
Kay Forristal brings us a couple of her poems "My Town" and
"The Fairy Ring." and John McGrath's two sonnets, are "Crabs at
Carrigafoyle" and "Ode to Age."
Walt Perryman"s two are "Man Pain VS Woman Pain" and "A Good
Time to Pray." Bruce Clifford's "That Exact Way" and "Angel of The Past"
came early for this month. John I. Blair has one new poem, "Flame
Acanthus." Bud Lemire's illustrated November poems are "Cathy Plank,"
"Major Utilities," and "Halloween 2023."
"Introspective" by Thomas F. O'Neill shares his experiences
at an early age, working with Mother Theresa,. in his column
"Introspective." Judith Kroll's subject, "The Rainbow Bridge" is the
whole "On Trek" column." Pauline Evanosky's column "Woo Woo," talks
about how even psychics are affected "When Things Go Sideways." Marilyn
Carnell's column "Sifoddling Along" shares a loving tribute to her
uncle who was a WWI soldier. We wish the best to the columnist Danielle
Cote Serar whose home and business activities keep her hopping, so much
so she's going to close her very helpful and interesting column. "A
Mother's Lessons."
