Nostalgic November
Sweet, nostalgic November…
poignant, childhood memories
of blustery, biting winds
cold red nose, smiling rosy cheeks
brilliant, swirling, falling leaves
that crunched beneath my feet
Blowing out a misty breath,
dreams drifting in chill air,
carried me far away…
We went to the beach today,
hand in hand, toes curled in sand
bare feet walked along blue shores
sandpipers ran like windup toys
soaring gulls cried out their joy
sparkling sunlight danced on the ocean
amidst the tunes of tides in motion.
A sun kissed breeze caressed my face
as I recalled another place
in sweet, nostalgic November…
