November the Month to Remember
Do not search for me down among the marble headstones
Where rooks on November branches
Make gathering cry for the dying year.
Do not look for me where summer’s leaves
Decay on waves of winter grass.
Do not imagine me as you last saw me
Pale, bruised and empty of life.
I am not here
But see that shaft of sunlight
Which spots the grey dark lake of late November
On the heather hillside of Donegal
Or listen to the thrush
Squeeze out the last notes of its sunny summer song.
Or hear the laughter
I splashed in my sister’s face
On the sun drenched beach that summer before I left you.
I go on playing not where winter withers
But where spring
Is eternal.
(Autumn Churchyard by John McCullagh)
