It was October again... a glorious October, all red and
gold, with mellow mornings when the valleys were filled with delicate mists as
if the spirit of autumn had poured them in for the sun to drain — amethyst,
pearl, silver, rose, and smoke-blue. The dews were so heavy that the fields
glistened like cloth of silver and there were such heaps of rustling leaves in
the hollows of many-stemmed woods to run crisply through. ~ Lucy Maud

October is my favorite time of the year as Autumn takes us away from the externally-focused energies of
exuberant summertime and asks us to pause and consider how we feel, who we
are, and to reminisce. We revisit the
past during this time to integrate, grieve, reflect, and heal.

For today's challenge, I want you all to draw inspiration from the YouTube playlist above. Pick a song that speaks to you poetically and write a poem.
You could be inspired by the title, the lyrics or just the emotions that the song evokes. Please do mention your choice somewhere in your post and remember to give credit.
Choose your own form or write in free verse, if preferred. I look forward to reading what you guys come up with. Please do visit others and remember to comment on their poems. Have fun!🍁
