November Evening
Sky
cradles a sliver of moon.
Saturn
in the West, the only star.
Humpbacked
mountains crouch.
Trees
point leafless limbs above me.
Cold
stings my cheeks, chills fingers
searching
for warmth inside my coat.
The
white dog trots ahead
and
pokes his nose into bushes
left
bare by last week's freeze. Snow will fall
before
dawn, dress firs, pines and oaks,
hills
and houses in winter's wrapping.
I stop,
savor the closing moments of dusk,
loath to
go within and face the truth.
Will my
brother see another autumn's gold?
Or does
Eternity wait like the glistening
days of
December, beckoning light
so
bright he is drawn forever away?--- Glenda Council Beall
