Past Octobers never liked me much,
just a Libra, another year older,
always the mark of heavy winters,
the weight of the world put on my shoulder.

I just kept on praying hard
and in between the tears
I met with faint glimpses of hope,
bits and pieces of future years.

And all was good with the world
because sooner or later, I knew I'd see
that one October that would set me free
and fall head over heels in love with me.

And now, October takes me by the hand,
and all I can say is "ain't love grand?"

Ohhhh! I love the glow in this, and october, too! The colors are so vibrant, and there is no snow where I live at this time of year.  A crisp air of vitality comes with it.  It's a good time to be in love with life.

Keep a happy heart! ~ Karen
