As November grows colder, in deep genuflect
A passage set softly on the heels of neglect

Without brevity here, in the depth of these dreams
Without thinking so clear, all can’t be what it seems

For the only need noticed and the only true care
Are blue eyes in the moonlight softly seeing you there

In the twist fate can send like November breeze blow
Or the shapeless dimensions that uncovered woods know

Without breathing or saying a wish spilled in green
Without flinching, or wincing, in a time sight unseen

For the only unending, steaming silently through
Are blue eyes in the moonlight settled softly with you

While the sweet dough’s of autumn bake in ovens so slow
And the difference and distance disappears in the glow

Without moving at all, far away or beside
Without making the call, or a sound undenied

For the only remembrance and the only wish sent
Are blue eyes in the moonlight softly filled and content

As November discovers the shadows and rains
Stoic skies like the heartbeat crying tears when it pains

Without faulting or falling, without taking, once stepped
Without leaving or going, without climbing days leapt

For the only intangible rambling worth shared
Are blue eyes in the moonlight and each moment cared

As lips do chill and feel the frost
As waves then flow in waters tossed.
As yearning takes the heart to feel
the blue of November, so very real.

Blue are the eyes in fall of leaves
as one heart remains and believes.
Blue are the cheeks once in blush
as eyes see the dawn,  a waking hush.

Deep November blues sparkle and shine
Deep November hues so radiant and fine.

Very nicely done Kathy...flurbing well..

(smiles) Oh my gosh, I just love the celestial beauty of this, sweet friend, November to me is so mysteriously beautiful especially at dawn and dusk, and seeing the contrast of Lady Luna in the navy blue is a splendid site too that any wolf would envy! (kiss on cheek) This is gorgeous, sweet friend, I love it, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Kathleen, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
