ADIEU NOVEMBER 2017 By Polly Guerin
November came in nipping at our nose
And one colder day we nearly froze
Then a whipping wind tore into space
The tree branches pirouetted in place
The colors of nature warmed the palette
Cranberry vied with gold on earth's planet
Then, too, the Veteran's Day parade
Reminded us not to forget the brave
And a season of deeply felt gratitude
Thanksgiving helped form our attitude
Pumpkin, butternut squash, apple pie
November's aroma Delicious! I cry
Let's not forget sweet November
Take time to record and remember
The season of a harvestful bounty
Of good feeling sentiments counting
Those glory days with family, friends
The welcome mat open never ends
We hardly had time to savor November
Those treasured days by warm embers
Time to prepare for the joyous adventure
A holiday is on the threshold, did I mention
Parting indeed is such, such sweet sorrow
Let's look to all that's brand new tomorrow
So I bid Adieu to November's autumn phase
Soon frosty weather takes over within days!!!

POLLY RELFECTS
It took a long time to become me
That's quite amazing I do agree
I have achieved, I have no regrets
I'm not the kind of gal who forgets
I remember how I squandered days
My youthful folly was another phase
Those precious days sadly wasted
Pinning away worried an unscathed
Mooning over romance, lost love
Found relief from grief from above
I count my abundant blessings now
I know myself at last, yes I do avow
Awhirl in a joyous mature dance
An now I take a backward glance
My life story's in a perfect place
I'll write it down before the race
And take life back with gratitude
A new found joie de vivre attitude
To celebrate the new reborn me
My rejuvenation sets me free!
