Horn of plenty, meant for many
A November to Remember!
Yes, I see your silly simper.
Get your tummies really limber.
You’ve a bird to help dismember.
No illusion, this profusion,
though it seems a clear delusion.
Tryptophan adds to obtusion
on this buffet of confusion.
One objection: predilection
For a bird that met rejection
and quite possibly injection?
I’ll skip to pumpkin confection!
You walked away
it was chilly outside
you said I wouldn’t remember
how my sweater wasn’t enough
it brought chills down my spine
it wasn’t everything it always was
my hands felt frozen
november was cold
without you
and you were wrong
i remember.
November -{renata ferretti}
A decade of November’s
November 2010: Still in school, we watched the fireworks from our backyard, standing on wooden chairs so we could see better, we were so short lol
November 2011: I realised I'd found my best friend, we watched the fireworks in the park, our first outing together, young and clueless but at least we were fun
november 2012: I had the most fun, did parodies to songs I liked, studied and perused my dreams, got closer to God, potenrial still to be realised, fireworks lighting up the night sky
November 2013: discovered I still had feelings for someone I thought I'd buried deep inside the black hole of my past, reconnected with old friends only to be seperated again, didn't watch the fireworks that year....
November 2014: the worst one yet, alone, away from everything and everyone I knew and loved, fireworks a distant memory.
November 2015: my welcome return to my loved ones, to my God and to fireworks.
November 2016: laid low, took a break from the rollercoaster but never from guy forks night :)
November 2017: Started a writers course and vollenteared to help at my Church's youth group, happy and content, the best I'd felt for a while eccompanied by the anual explosion of colours, a loud night rainbow, God getting creative.
November 2018: univentful, I'm pretty sure the fireworks weren't that great that year either lol
November 2019: joining a theatre group, my dreams rekindled, making new friends, experiencing more fireworks.
November 2020: unknown, uncertain, corona virus clouding everything including the fireworks, but regardless of what November holds God is always in control :) ❤️

It's only November.
The battle's only just begun.

We won.
