Episode #229: Last Minute Miracle

A perfectly reasonable mid-autumnal sojourn into some finely crafted R&B, picked from orchards of song by strapping lads in handsome flannels. Set a fire on the hearth, poach some apples in a cinnamon broth, watch the cleansing trajectory of descending oak leaves, and enjoy these agreeable sonnets with acorn-hard edges. (sniff) Are those roasted Hasselback sweet potatoes I smell? Show me the horn of plenty, stable hand!
