Happy October

October trees, they sway in the wind A tangerine tango that taunts the tinges October leaves, they swirl in the breeze A vermilion whirligig that vaunts the whispers October hues, they swagger the mind A rubicund rollicking that haunts the shadows October scenes, they sweep the heart A garnet gambol that daunts the artists October skies, they swarm the soul A titian twinkle that flaunts God’s blessings 09.30.2021

oh my , another beauty. I wish I could come up with a short free verse like this about fall. Mine is so long (not posted yet). I hope you get a win.

Beautifully crafted Jo. This was such a wonderful poem to read today on the first day of October. I love how this was constructed.

We're in October now and rain is imminent. Look forward to November Indian summer.
