october

streams of sunlight
immerse me in warmth
when the sun sinks
breath clouds will form

currents of cool
float in the breeze
tingling the nose
time for long sleeves

forests set ablaze
an inferno of hues
orange, yellow, red
beneath heaven blue

the man in the moon
sheds his pale light
through the crisp air
each electric night

the crazy thing is that i wrote a poem a lot like this three years ago... not near as good. but it basically said the same thing. ;]
