Octo-Burr
A celebration of the first month of Fall
Completely forgot when I posted to mention this is part of The Spooky Season Challenge by S. A. Crawford. You can find the challenge here:
Summer sun begins to fade
And the air begins to chill
A spark grows deep inside of me
It’s my favorite time of the year!
.
Days grow shorter and nights longer
Leaves turn from green to gold
Crisp leaves crunch under booted feet
Dew hangs on grass and trees
.
Ghosts and pumpkins are on the porch
Cobwebs, scarecrows make a spooky host
Witches and pirates roam the streets
It's time to ask for tricks or treats
.
Walking silently through the night
The shadows grow so dark
A frantic chill runs up my spine
I celebrate - it’s spooky time!

My To Be Read List
I have been taking some time away from writing. I haven't forgotten about Vocal, the truth is I just have been too busy pursuing other things to write online and honestly, my little family and I just had a really hard month between the flu and a weird eye infection/cold circulating our house. I'm currently sipping some warm peppermint tea because my throat is sore.
