October's Kiss

By:Richard Lamoureux I felt the breeze that you blew my way With colourful leaves, you wanted me to play I couldn't see the beauty, I was lost in yesterday The summer that had passed, I wanted it to stay A new day awaits, bathing the canvas in a sun Ray Arousing yesterday's leaves, from where they lay Octobers announcement, bounty of the bluejay Kissed by the tender breeze, I blew your way. A Poet Destroyer Collaboration It was my pleasure to write a collaboration with Linda. She is a bright star in our midst and brightens our sky.
