October Stirs

Perfumed earth abounds in the stir of autumn
While muted golden tones crackle with aging
Twisted, shedding branches coalesce in the touted mist
Mired in feathered, falling ocher leaves drift trailing

While muted golden tones crackle with aging
This cornucopia harvest bursts with robust fondness
Mired in feathered, falling ocher leaves drift trailing
Enriching our October path as a gift of abundance

This cornucopia harvest bursts with robust fondness
Twisted, shedding branches coalesce in the touted mist
Enriching our October path as a gift of abundance
Perfumed earth abounds in the stir of autumn
