October

October is

when night guzzles up

the orange sherbet sunset

and sends the day

to bed

before supper

and

October is when jack-o’-lanterns

grin in the darkness

and

strange company crunches

across the rumple of dry leaves

to ring a doorbell.

October is

when you can be ghost,

a witch,

a creature from outer space…

almost anything!

And the neighbors, fearing tricks,

give you treats.
