October Nights

William Daniel Still Jr.

Moonlit clouds
Glowing brightly
Strong winds
Blowing through the trees
Brings the sweet scent
Of a fall chill
The tree limbs are waving
Dancing in the breeze
Hints of color
Peeking through the shadows
Fall colors
They are beautiful
In the bright moonlight
Of October
