An October Rhyme
A chill in the air denotes a season of changing,
And fall colors abound so vividly vibrant
Evoke curious stares from a worthy aspirant
While blankets of leaves fall, gently arranging.
October's crisp kiss, a beholding so wondrous,
Takes open air dances, a flutter - susurration -
Paint brushstrokes in sophisticated gradation
Temptations to surrender, a state of peace so slumberous.
A celebration of grandeur is this Autumn Light,
Awakened by magic finally there to emit
Mellowing beauty now softly moonlit
Along with teeming shadows brought by midnight.
