October Moon Story

...and the pot of chili simmered as the clouds parted slightly settling upon the bright darkness of the sky... a table with a bowl of oyster crackers in front of a bowl of life-like leaves and well-crafted assortment of fruit near and distant sounds float in and out windows and a partially opened and chained front door no trick-or-treaters on this night just sounds of life undernearth the glow of an October moon illuminating nearby clouds ...and a chilly breeze several degrees below average whip past houses, cars, and plants forgotten outside there is no face in the moon, there is light and promises of a lovely night... cars park in front of this house and a few people show up at the front door with breads, drinks, and desserts... they gather together and there are no howls against the winds or creepy crawly things of fright and mischievous fun Halloween... near and distant sounds of life, of night, and an October moon...
