No sun — no moon!
No morn — no noon —
No dawn — no dusk — no proper time of day.
No warmth, no cheerfulness, no healthful ease,
No comfortable feel in any member.
No shade, no shine, no butterflies, no bees,
No fruits, no flowers, no leaves, no birds!
NOVEMBER!
(Thomas Hood 1799-1845)

😊 there is Bonfire Night, All Saints’ Day (which in many places is still a public holiday!) toasted crumpets , stir-up Sunday and of course Fiori Musicali concerts!! Plenty to look forward to ….
