When the frost is on the pumpkins
and ghosts and goblins give you frights
You’re going to need a sweater
to keep you warm on autumn nights.
Maybe someone made it for you, sweating in July,
or you found it in a thrift store, when you went in days gone by.
A bonus if it’s tweedy, if it has pockets and a hood
But even if it doesn’t, the colors feel so good.
Go back in your closet, get it out and wear it soon.
You could even put it on tonight, walking under the Hunter’s Moon!
