October’s Party
October gave a party...
The leaves by the hundreds came,
The ash, oak, and maple...
And those of every name.
The sunshine spread a carpet,
And everything was grand;
Miss Weather led the dancing,
Professor Wind the band.
The chestnuts came in yellow,
The oak in crimson dressed,
The lovely Miss Maple,
In scarlet looked her best;
All balanced to their partners,
They gaily fluttered by,
The sight was like a rainbow,
New fallen in the sky.
Then in the rustic billows,
At “Hide and Seek” they played,
The party closed at sundown,
And everybody stayed;
Professor Wind played louder,
They flew along the ground,
And here the party ended,
In jolly “All Hands Round”.

| Geez, Chris, this is actually very good. When you do your own thing you are very much centered. I could actually feel the rare feeling that sensitive people are turned on by when we slow down to observe something as maginicant as the change of season. While summer people are bright, those of us autumn dwellers have really got it right. Good luck in your journey of change. |

| Keep up the good work. Isn't it amazing how much more we know and understand as children? Embrace the innocence and go with it. |

"October's Party" will set its motion through the season of the millennia - diffusing its aroma of sublime beauty.
I salute You, Poet.
In admiration,
