Haiku for Frost

the frost's on the ground --
it covers the windowpane --
Old Man Winter wakes

Hello November

hello November
you came with howling winds
and blew away October 
till we couldn't look back again

hello November
you're cold and dark and grim
but full of anticipation
for pumpkin pie and autumn's end

hello November
we have you for Thanksgiving
and last short bursts of sunshine
before winter settles in
