October brings spring’s
evil twin, tiptoeing
skipping, running
backward through
fallen leaves.
She blows a kiss
crisp as an autumn apple.
Sullen, I contemplate
the coat closet.

ReplyDeleteYou did it! Yea, you! And such a delightful, energetic verse. Well, apart from that sullenness associated iwth the coat closet. I really like it!

October has a way with turning every path into a Yellow Brick Road. Lovely poem.
