October is the beginning of Fall,
It has the beauty of fairies you adore.
Pecans and apples are ripen and golden,
Dogs and cats play hide and seek often.
.
October 1st is the best,
Because summer heat eventually gets to rest.
October 2nd is my birthday,
What a perfect time to celebrate.
.
I was born with the most curious eyes,
I enjoyed looking at autumn skies.
I was tickled by the rich colors of Fall,
I enjoyed pumpkin pies, my grandma used to recall.
.
I was terrified about getting flu shots,
Which had driven my parents nuts.
I was pleased to get the permission to choose
some of my favorite dresses and shoes.
.
I dreamed many fancy dreams,
I excelled in school without playing tricky schemes,
I explored places in long distances,
Thousands of books had given me soul food to smile at certain circumstances.
.
October is haunting ans exciting as well,
Ghosts are all over the town to dwell.
Feed yourself some sweet pop tarts
before the chill of November starts.
