October
The first breath of autumn
greens begin to fade.
Deprived of chlorophyll
a very colourful brocade.
With any luck at all
an Indian summer calls
St Luke's little summer
autumn frosts stall.
A late harvesting chance
grate fully accepted.
The summer very brief
surplus harvest collected.
Ash, walnut, sycamore
yellow to the fore.
Copper beech and maple
red the décor.
Bracket fungi perennials
getting bigger every year.
The host tree eventually
will rot and disappear.
If the weathers right
and the sun is not to shy.
A blaze of brilliant colours
will overwhelm your eye.
