October sings

October’s dew spangled beauty ―
alongside gold and auburn dreams
cuts through ever’y doubt and pain
round corners of gelid winter sings.
Stunned, I watch with breath abate
as critique and pen accumulate ―
bear witness to my soul (solace)

    I’m glad you have her in a happy mood, singing. Probably she is singing the Happy Birthday Song to me towards the end of her month. Nicely written.
