October

October

Temperature dropping

The leaves start to change color

Gentle breeze rolls in

Then the leaves fall down

We rake them up and kids jump

Laughter fills the air

 

Pick out your pumpkin

Carve a face, make it unique

Place a candle in

Christmas trees go up

IT'S NOT EVEN HALLOWEEN

Please don't rush my year

This is time for spooks

The ghosts and the ghouls come out

Are they real or not?

The children dress up

Knocking on doors for candy

They shout "Trick-Or-Treat!"

Halloween party

Everyone bobs for apples

Strange costumes are worn

Then the clock strikes 12

No more kids, no more party

October is gone

November is here

FINE! YOU CAN PUT UP THAT TREE!

Just stop nagging me!

The time of fall and welcoming of winter breezes. The ending 6 stanzas I liked very much. It seems that there is a rush to celebrate Christmas whereas it actually not even passed October... A very unique concept... Well done frnd...

'Please don't rush my year.'
What a wonderful phrase that is!

Rather comical, well written and so accurate to real life.

I think you are going to win the contest. Actually, I don't. I don't think that you were supposed to actually write about october. Besides, this isn't that great of a poem anyway.
