October

"There is something in October sets the gypsy blood astir, We must rise and follow her; When from

every hill of flame, She calls and calls each vagabond by name."

-William Bliss Carman

I can't explain it, but there is just something about October that I love. Maybe it's the blazing colors, or the semi-chilly days, but it makes me want to snuggle under a blanket with hot cider. I think part of it is that October is the last hurrah before winter comes in. It makes me want to go outside and enjoy nature before it goes to sleep. Another part is that I was so stressed last month, a new beginning sounds wonderful, even if a new beginning is in the form of a month. 

This October will be brilliant.
