My Favorite Color Is October

The greatest gift that I could give you is the gift of my long years every shade of burgundy that wine can't sell every shade of gold that the sun cannot display the greatest gift that I can give you, is the gift of my years I am October, I come once a year at your home my love, to Caress you with shivers both warm and cool. I am a Teleported month that sweeps away the summers scorch Opening doors to pastures and rustic pleasures, plum corn Bathed in yellow juicy grains and bites, acorns, pinecones Environmental beauties that never exist in winter's spew; Return to me lover as I puff over you, I am "October " your favorite color, silk scarves are put away mink coats are worn summer suits placed in cedar drawers, I am suddenly reborn through airy branches of trees Feasting on your wind whipped eyes of blue I become October every consecutive year, your favorite color is October, and mine is you.

Wow! Congrats! Thanks for sharing this, letting me virtually experience October as you revealed it --- since I live in an "autumnless" country. God bless you.

This is a marvelous poem, Vie. I read it twice because, not being a lover of October, I needed this picture of what is really beautiful about the month. Your words, carefully chosen, are brilliant choices. May I wish you the best in Gina's contest.
