       Fate's Last Horizon

On such a sad, grey November
   day,
along this weary-forest way
of withered leaves and fading
   dreams
swirl-dancing in the wintry
   wind,
one thinks of all that was...
and 'might have been',
(if only Time had been a 'friend')
before far too much was forever
   lost...
beyond fate's last horizon.

Yo Secondhanddreampoet,

This is very well put. It's a universal lament of older human kind.

Yes, it is a chilly damp day, and time seems to mock us on days like this.
But I am rejoicing, excited with our new Presidential selection, and find this November day offers great Hope and abundant warmth of positive, good feelings.
It's a good day to be alive!!!

Do you see how you ultimately transform the cold and sad November day into beauty?

Oh, Kacy, I love your reply too! How true!!

Love,
