The gold is vibrant, but it is the crimson I search for
And when the auburn displays, my heart smiles too
It is this month that color fuses the land
Ensuring summer is gone with
The green will fade and harvest takes over
Everything from moon and sky to leaves and land
Shine with enhancement and brilliance
Preparing for winter's solace
Beauty before death; Restoration for survival
Like so many of nature's finest habitants
We feed on this magnificent abundance
Storing it within our soul
If September brings welcome chill and vigor
October hands out beauty for thrill and fill
Every new day delightful to what we may find
Sparing us starvation in the months ahead
Fill me with October ... and it's Fall
