Bracing cold winds blow

Sun hides, peeking out shyly

Embrace November

You hit the nail on the head with this one — it is that transitional chill to winter that is such a bracing cold (even though in a month or two we would welcome cold as warm as this!)

I’m having a hard time embracing this weather. I wish it were summer. 😦

Your poem fits today perfectly, the sun is definitely shy, in fact I’d say a bit of a hermit lately.

It has turned suddenly very cold here too, truly Novemberish now. 🙂

OK, embracing it with you. (It’s easier to embrace when you’re cuddled beneath a blanket in the house and the white is outside.)

    which is not a good thing–I have been racing the clock trying to get things done outside–and I am not an outside girl–though I feel stronger already–me, woman, hear me cry

I guess you have no choice but to don your woolly hat and scarf, and embrace it, cold and all. 🙂
This is AD, popping in from my new blog.

  no choice–though at least I like scarves but hats mess up my hair–ha ha

    I’d also rather freeze than have messy hair. 🙂
