OCTOBER
WITH A DIFFERENCE

 

Sunlight
span in Gossamers

In
October.

Winter is
just around the corner.

Dahlias
sing a dulcet song

Yet! Yet!
Yet.

 

Rosehips
spin their hips: unashamedly ruby!

To the
candy-floss wind.

 

Pumpkins
of orange hues-

Burn!
Burn! Burn in suburban gardens.

Tourmaline
fields of Peckham:

All
senses gratified.

Apples of
trees entice!

Awaiting
to be crushed into pastes.

 

Yet time
doesn't await no-one nor October.

The
winter of drizzle is around the corner.

Cinnamon
scents, mulled wines, wide smiles on little faces

On
Christmases to compensate.

Every
cloud has a silver lining!

You capture the mellowness of the cooling, shortening days, and the mixture of winter with its indoor warmth. You caught me in your first line! Rhiannon
