I really love this month. It seems like the true beginning of Fall. Who else loves this time of year?

so far, so good. but October has a habit of turning sour


but i'm enjoying it while it's still nice. i heard northern wisconsin got 3 inches of snow today

sour how? November?

I also love October, the fall weather, leaves turning color and the best of all HALLOWEEN

I do. I just wish we had actual seasonal changes out here.

fickle weather, that tends to turn to crap more often than not.


frost, horizontal rain, wind, cold, noticeably shorter days... with, admittedly, several nice ones thrown in too. it just feels like the beginning of the end.

the end of what, i don't know, since it happens every year, but still...

We're supposed to get snow here tomorrow. I'm not at all looking forward to that. But usually, October is nice here. And I love Indian Summer. Hope we get one this year.

Autumn makes me depressed, because the days grow darker and shorter.
I like winter because I love snow and winter sun on icy landscapes. It's beautiful and prettyyy!
I LOVE spring because the days grow longer and brighter.
Summer is okay, but I don't like it when it gets so hot you need tons of deodorant not to reek of sweat - eew!.

I love this time of year.

Pinch and punch for the first of the month.

Falling leaves drift by the window
The autumn leaves of red and gold
I see your lips, the summer kisses
The sun-burned hands I used to hold

Since you went away the days grow long
And soon I'll hear old winter's song
But I miss you most of all my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall.

"The Falling of the Leaves"

Autumn is over the long leaves that love us,
And over the mice in the barley sheaves;
Yellow the leaves of the rowan above us,
And yellow the wet wild-strawberry leaves.

The hour of the waning of love has beset us,
And weary and worn are our sad souls now;
Let us part, ere the season of passion forget us,
With a kiss and a tear on thy drooping brow.

W.B. Yeats
