NOVEMBER SKIES....

"November holds the first moments of winter's magic..." -Teale

"Dull November brings the blast,
Then the leaves are whirling fast."
-  Sara Coleridge

"So dull and dark are the November days.
The lazy mist high up the evening curled,
And now the morn quite hides in smoke and haze;
The place we occupy seems all the world."
-   John Clare, November

"All in November's soaking mist We stand and prune the naked tree,
While all our love and interest Seem quenched in the blue-nosed misery."
-  Ruth Pitter, 1897-1992, The Diehards, 1941

 

"The white sun  like a moth on a string circles the southpole."
-   A. R. Ammons, Late November 

"I saw old Autumn in the misty morn Stand shadow less like silence, listening
To silence."-   Thomas Hood, Ode: Autumn, 1827
