Fall’s colors blooming
Beauty consuming
Snow’s forecast looming
October’s surprise
Brightest leaves falling
Autumn’s paintballing
Is winter calling?
October’s surprise
Fall’s brilliance waning
Winter’s clouds reigning
Snowflakes now painting
October’s surprise
Season’s change scheming
White landscape beaming
Autumn daydreaming
October’s surprise
Leaves’ colors grieving
Wintertime leaving
Fall still believing
October’s surprise

October surprise! Beautiful, Richard!

Karla, thanks for sharing your kind words. This poem was inspired by a recent October surprise in Montana. My nine-month old grandson experienced snow for first time.

Thanks for reading Jim. In Montana, my nine-month old grandson enjoyed his own October surprise with about 5-6 inches of snow.
