Octobery

An invitation in the form of a seasonal poem, into deep-mapping this October! Join me here on Tuesdays and Thursdays!

October is very 
much seed head and berry. 

Not so much for getting 
or striving and betting
on things or for setting 
in stone, life, and sweating.

Less for the steep quest 
and more in the harvest:
The knowing of how blessed
is time to stop and rest. 

Allowing the calling 
of Autumn - the balling 
of berries and falling 
of leaves, and the crawling

of creatures below them.
The fungus that know them
will always bestow them 
with rottings to grow them. 

Will you do some rotting?
Instead of the plotting?
Will you find surrender 
In seasonal splendour? 

If so then let’s walk on
together, and talk on
the things that still matter
Beneath all the chatter.

October is very 
much seed head and berry. 

If this makes you merry 
You ARE Octobery!
