October

 Hi there. It is time for another Sunday Song and Rhyme challenge. This week is all about Halloween as the song /poem chosen talks about this. 

Our Song/Rhyme this fortnight is from Lorie

October

by John Updike from A Child's Calendar

The month is Amber,

Gold and Brown.

Blue ghosts of smoke

Float through the town.

Great V’s of geese

Honk overhead.

And maples turn

A fiery red.

Frost bites the lawn.

The stars are slits

In the black cat’s eye

Before he spits.

At last, small witches,

Goblins, hags,

And pirates armed

With paper bags.

Their costumes hinged

On safety pins,

Go haunt a night

Of pumpkin grins.

Our sponsor this time is Polkadoodles and there are prizes up for grabs.

I chose to work with an image called Autumn Wheelbarrow which I coloured using Letraset Promarkers. The papers are from Graphic45. I finished it off with some black sequins.

So now it is over to you to come join us for this challenge. Take care Theresa x
