I am October - the tenth month of the year,
Reminding you that another new year is near!
Yes, round the corner, just two months after me!
Why think of endings; why not the journey?
Come, let's use every day with care & focus,
I gladly volunteer to be your strong locus.
Now that I woke you up with my timely entry,
You have me by your side like a loyal sentry!
Here we march together in style hand-in-hand.
Let's show all our regal vibes great and grand.
There are still three weeks of my reign here,
Come, let's paint our world with love & cheer!

Maybe each day is the beginning of a new year.
ReplyDeleteI'm here for it, regal October!!!!
ReplyDeleteSo loved the jaunty exuberance of your lines, Anita. I smiled as I read, your poem itself, like October, a "timely entry" of "love and cheer." Did my heart good, it did. 😊💞
Great October poem I love the line 'We think of endings, why not the journey?" and that last line makes your heart jump
