In October

In October 
the wind picks up 
dusting the ground with fallen multicolored leaves 
leaving bare trees to shiver 
in October 
people dress a little warmer 
and jump on hay wagons 
eager to reach pumpkin patches 
where farmers have yielded 
fields of assorted pumpkins 
in October 
horses are decorated 
pumpkins carved 
and kids dress in costumes 
ready to trick or treat 
in October 
I sit around a blazing bonfire 
in a hoodie and sweatpants 
watching floating amber's 
disappear in dark sky 
bringing october to an end
