Onward To October

October began today with a quick change of weather

plunging us instantly into Autumn.

At the end of last month,

we were equally awed and spooked

by a Blood Moon caused by the lunar eclipse

on September 27th.

Since then, we have been treated,

nightly,

to glowing red skies and

sunsets,

with such a profound glow

that their colours seep into my windows

drawing my eyes, like a magnet,

to the sky.

Even the flowers,

long since having lost their petals

but eager to join in the celebrations 

have taken to catching the last light of day

in their seedy legs

causing all kinds of eerie patterns

for me to capture.

For now, I'm enjoying every red moment :)

And before we know it,

Halloween will be here!
