Savor October

Savor October 

As the sun sets sooner
  Upon a cooler day,
As nor’easter blows will beckon
  Damp and wet like weathermen say,
After the last lawn mow, before
  The leaves have blown away,
This aroma of mildew and compost and rot
  Has blended in a hummus
Delicious enough in to dip a carrot
  Or paste upon a pita,
(Could a breeze be so substantial
  as to spoon spread) then
Washed down with ginger beer
  And black Bermuda seal rum

Tastes
  I will re-savor
When boldly standing here again
  Come crisp winter’s sterile air
