Brisk Cold Winds of October

The threshing floor divides the brisk cold winds and too gentle zephyr of mortality. I choose the rose-red blush where death rescinds. My mind reels with the thrill of whiteout blinds buffeted by green field sentimentality. The threshing floor divides the brisk cold winds. Exciting the throng, leather football winds. Gruff padded players gift us vitality. I choose the rose-red blush where death rescinds. To feel so alive in sweaters, not thinned, bouncing along in haywagon of normality. The threshing floor divides the brisk cold winds. Pumpkin and apple pies, corn, all else tinned. Harvest festivals of cordiality. I choose the rose-red blush where death rescinds. A scarecrow field stays put in our minds filled with Halloween unreality. The threshing floor divides the brisk cold winds I choose the rose-red blush where death rescinds. 6/21/2020 Month of the year I like most Poetry Contest Sponsor: Mohan Chutani

October is such a glorious month, which you have penned so well, I like the line 'harvest festivals of cordiality' the best!

I also like Autumn which is going towards Winter but for us Spring going into Summer - delightful time of the year either way! Well penned my friend. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

In allmy years of writing poem, and they are many, I've attempted only one villanelle! A challenge for sure and one my nature isn't suited to. You did very well in yours, my dear. Congratulations! /Maurice

Your repeating lines are divine, Kim. you know, October is one of the months I was considering for this challenge. It's so beautiful. I am down to four months as my favorites now and I need to hurry and decide. I'd say good luck but I don't think you will need it with this great villanelle.
