Grateful for October

                                                                               

                                                            Moody skies, crisp temperatures, strong winds


                                                             Deep blues, golds, browns and reds


Undecided melancholy

Tease of hauntings, whispering ghosts.


Creaking trees and burning wood.


  October.
