November Frost
Form: Raven’s Rovi Sonnet 23
Theme: Love
Subject: Autumn walk
The rusty gold oak leaves litter the trail
With autumn’s hues rustling beneath our feet
As we walk again through the woodland vale
In the undergrowth berries shine in red
Winter’s feast for creatures that live around
For winds turn colder in the days ahead
And the frost morns gather without a sound
The seasons turn, this truth can never fail
And my hand covers yours against the cold
The warmth of love knows no limit or bound
For in nature we find our hearts’ own beat
As we head home to tea and fresh baked bread
And by the fire our stories now unfold
And dark nights of winter can have no hold
