Geoffrey Brewer Poet Pantoum

October Transience

OCTOBER TRANSIENCE
Bipolar month again unsettled ever changing
Summer’s mellow imitation defies winter’s grasp
Days of transient golden treasure to be cherished
Light and dark competing now in passing equipoise

Summer’s mellow imitation defies winter’s grasp
Sun now heads for southern apogee on Capricorn
Light and dark competing now in passing equipoise
Time’s echoed cycle of the seasons shall continue

Sun now heads for southern apogee on Capricorn
Days of transient golden treasure to be cherished
Time’s echoed cycle of the seasons shall continue
Bipolar month again unsettled ever changing
