November
Thomas Hood, 1844
as heard in The Art Of Noise's "Opus 4"



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!

Good effort Kathy, but no!

On the bright side it means that Christmas is next month. Such a lovely time of year (but then I always was an old romantic, It's A Wonderful Life, etc.)

Good effort Kathy, but no!

I admit I start to get
cheerful in March,
April, May and June are wonderful,
July, August and September are just about tolerable,
October and November start getting bad,
December I can endure because of Xmas and
January and February are just tedious
