where the wild flowers grow

Here, midnight in November,
is the bitter aroma of the wind,
reminding me of my skin
still being intact.

Watching as the leaves drown in
riverbeds of ice..
Now I wish my dreams begone.
November snow,
cannot even save that which has already passed..

There are no words to describe the
taste of the air,
though it's made a home in my lungs.

Meghan, driving in this morning, a few thoughts slipped in, and I wondered when best to share them.  Adding them to your post, for you, then, as I believe you would enjoy them most.

Emotions glisten
frost on a November morn,
he left her that cold

(big hugggssssssss) January is when the air can really get hard for me, as November can have that thick vortex of blizzardesque emotion! (sigh) I send angel hugs your way, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Meghan, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

"Here, midnight in November,

reminding me of my skin
still being intact."

this made me want to strip the skin from the rest of the words..and see underneath the workings of the mind that wrote it..to feel the intake of air and taste myself the November you speak of...

you do that... you take the reader into the essence of the feeling and leave them wanting to violently understand...

Always fantastic imagery in your work Kaoru.

Enjoyed.

ah, sweet november...sweet subtle november

i think that it's brainless to assume that making changes to your window's view will gain a new perspective.

I've never quite been able to appreciate the depressing nature that November seems to stir in some.  I find it stimulating.
Enjoyed the poem.

I miss the darkness that is October.

such wonder of light blue beauty sprinkled with shiny stars is your poem, illuminating dark catacombs of unknown unknown, bathing in its sparkling starlight, I am.
