November

Summary


"November" is a short poem that captures the month in two playful verses. Bare brown trees stand still while dry leaves whirl and dance through the air. Then the scene moves indoors, where red-cheeked apples roast, popcorn nears readiness, and toes and chestnuts toast by the warmth. The rhythm skips along like the leaves themselves, trading autumn's chill for cozy comfort. Read it aloud and enjoy the small seasonal pleasures it describes.

Trees bare and brown,
Dry leaves everywhere
Dancing up and down,
Whirling through the air.

Dry autumn leaves whirl outside while a girl toasts her toes by the fire in the poem November.

Red-cheeked apples roasted,
Popcorn almost done,
Toes and chestnuts toasted,
That’s November fun.
