November

Natural branches sit empty among the lonely pine Old leaves have fallen from every branch and vine Vegetation is unable to live, unable to grow Everyday we can feel the cold wind's blow Many hunters go out looking for wild prey Before the bright morning, before the end of day Every year we have a feast of thanksgiving Remembering why we must keep on living Birth date: November 20, 1984 Composition date: August 10, 2015

i liked this; opens with some strong imagery, and it almost has a hymn-like feel to it in places, or maybe it's just me! i like the closing line, and i also enjoyed the rhyme - congrats on your win in my contest!
