October
is the
round month,
the cool,
harvest moon month,
the
golden-yellow foliage month,
the
spooky ghosts and goblins month,
the
orange and brown and ochre month,
the
hooting owls on fence posts month,
the foggy
woods and bales of hay and
crunching-in-the-leaves
month,
the
followed-by-November month,
the jolly
Jack o’Lantern month,
the month
of Halloween.
