MID-OCTOBER AFTERNOON
–
Pale sunlight by three PM,
Driving to work again….
Early to work
(One and a half hour’s perk)…
Covering time for a friend.
–
The pundits say autumn is slow,
A disappointing show…
It looks fine to me
indubitably,
We’ll take it as on we go!
–
First frost may be a few days,
Before garden plants are crazed….
Stems turning brown
Get plowed down,
Plant food for next summer’s days.
