nature’s cancan skirts
vivid orange, gold, crimson red
leaves delight the eyes
windows opened wide
fresh breezes ruffle curtains
pumpkins on display
witches roam the streets
moms and dads with little ones
door to door for treats

Written for dVerse, the virtual pub for poets around the globe. Dora’s prompt is entitled Tripping the October Light Fantastic. She asks us to write a poem about October. Photo from last October in Boston’s Public Garden.

A beautiful poem, Lillian, and a gorgeous Maple tree!

You treat us with a feast for the eyes, Lill, and the movement of October, “cancan skirts” swirling, breezes ruffling, witches and trick-or-treaters roaming. Each haiku dances its way with haiku panache. I love it.
