A Morning in October It's a wild and windy morning And the air is full of sighs And the mist is drifting, drifting, Where the reedy water lies. I can hear a raven calling As he rides upon the breeze And the leaves are falling, falling, From the lonely autumn trees. It's a wild and windy morning And my heart is sad to hear The sound of wild geese crying From the higher atmosphere And the winter's nearly with us, When the days are cold and gray And the snow is blowing, blowing. So I put my dreams away! Betty Lou Hebert Published in Best of Rhyme Time 1991 and The Sunday Suitor in 1998 [This message has been edited by Trillium (edited 10-07-2001).] |

BettyLou~ Oh .... sounds to me like you're gonna need those 'dreams' to keep you WARM~ I got chilled just reading it~ You'd better pack up and migrate South~  *Hugs* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

Thanks Marge. I'm sure you wouldn't enjoy our 20 degree nights! However, I sure would enjoy your nice warm days! We have rain today. Hooray! Betty Lou Hebert |
