Fall colors are at their peak now
As the weather starts changing gears
Enjoying the glorious October sunshine
Before November's cold appears
See the vividly beautiful calendula
With its petals of orange and yellow
The birth flower of October
When the season is mild and mellow
Soon the array of autumn flowers
Will be visited by Mr. Jack Frost
Making their beauty fade and droop
Exquisite colors once again lost
Winter will pass, then spring and summer
And the flowers will blossom again
God's Earth will come full circle
To where the flowers of October reign
