Change is likely

 

About November

days grow colder and leaves drop

nothing left to say

Thanksgiving as we knew it

has just been cancelled

Rose unfurling

A late rose unfurls

unfazed by fall's chilly air

a joy to behold

 

Reincarnation

 

Appearing late fall

certainly a late bloomer

reincarnation

A bitter pill

 

We learn as children

some pills are hard to swallow

but we accept them

The wait

 

Hanging out awaiting

the forgone conclusion

life always goes on

Heroes

We are all heroes

when we tell our own story

it's the way to be

 

Hoping against hope

 

Many have fallen

while a few hardy ones last

hoping against hope
