For October

Oh, October, how happy I am to see you, my favorite month of the year.

I love your crisp mornings and chilly evenings, your autumn harvest, your colors, the richness of your days; your pumpkin patches, your costume-creating, your baking and hot drinks. I love that you are a perfect balance of the wonder and beauty of now, and the anticipation of things to come.

What good things you have in store for us.
