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 Copyright Kkh 11/12/02 |

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.. |

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