NOVEMBER, by                    
First Line: Silence the wind in the weeping willows
Last Line: Hoar frost covers the upland ground.
Subject(s): Autumn; Seasons; Fall


Silence the wind in the weeping willows --
Muffle the night hawk's muted cry --
Still the wail of the broad-leafed aspen
Quivering under the graying sky.
Quiet the crowing voice of the cockerel --
Muzzle the howl of the whimpering hound,
Then chant to the earth of her new born splendor:
Hoar frost covers the upland ground.
