from All Saints Day until Ash Wednesday,
death in the forefront of the mind,
but for the Savior's birth,
darkness the prevailing mood,
the cold begins,
wearying both mind and body,
Thanksgiving and football games,
a man-made reprieve,
precious hours in which death not pondered,
ashes to ashes,
and dust to dust,
die you will,
die you most,
this not my favorite time of the year.
