OCTOBER.

Bright yellow, red, and orange,The leaves come down in hosts;The trees are Indian princes,But soon they’ll turn to ghosts;The leathery pears and applesHang russet on the bough;It’s autumn, autumn, autumn late,’Twill soon be winter now.William Allingham.

Bright yellow, red, and orange,

The leaves come down in hosts;

The trees are Indian princes,

But soon they’ll turn to ghosts;

The leathery pears and apples

Hang russet on the bough;

It’s autumn, autumn, autumn late,

’Twill soon be winter now.
