Hello again, October...
It's good to see your face
Oh how those umber-misted cheeks
They liven up this place!
Your scent of spice and earthen musk
Is magic potpourri
That sifts through all my days gone by
And sets the sweetest free
And how I fancy your caress
Of cool and gentle breezes
You bring relief from summer's heat
With playful winter teases
You're a soothing invitation
To bake a pumpkin pie
And sip on apple cider
By the season's first firelight
And never such a spectacle
Do these "awed" eyes behold
As you breathe new life to foliage
In shades of red and gold
And even as your colors fade
And make their great descent
How graceful they are falling
Like angels Heaven sent
And on your farewell's eve
In the nakedness of day....
Your beauty overwhelms me still...
Oh won't you longer stay?
