Paul Laurence Dunbar's "October" is a poignant poem that captures the essence of autumn.

He explores themes of change, beauty, and mortality, suggesting that the cycle of nature mirrors the cycles of life and death. The poem is a testament to Dunbar's mastery of language and his ability to connect with the reader on an emotional level.Book Details
