October Sky

October Sky

On a sunny day

Bright and breezy

Clouds become wisps,

Unable to cloud the sky.

*

Hopeful,

We think it will bring warmth.

*

Not so.

This kind of blue is

Icy

Withering

Chilling us to the bones

*

It makes us dream,

Though spring won’t

Come

For a command

Begging doesn’t help.

*

Wrap up warm,

And

Prepare for winter.

*

Autumn Leaf

      Thank you, Debi!
      Yes, it can be chilly in October, although we have unusually warm weather this week. The climate is out of sync. . .
