Precious Moments - October Sun
A friend who warms the earth
though unlike Spring, when she gives birth
to blooms and blossoms, on hill, in vale
October sun's yellow's a shade of pale
She parts the clouds with yet-piercing rays
but does not linger long these days
Waits 'til coffee's finished to rise
Then zooms across the chilly skies
And ere she goes down, she dips too fast
for her memorable sunsets to last
Those precious moments, of brilliant hue
when couples whisper, "I love you"
