Friday Poetry: Elsa Beskow

October


Golden, you are,
October.
Golden soverigns on your trees.
Golden guineas on your floor,
golden coins of leaves
that fall
for us to scuffle ghrough
and rustle
and rattle
and hustle
and scrabble
and dabble
and paddle
as they fall
into an October carpet
which hides
our shoes.

~ Elsa Beskow
