          Guess the poet:
          "We slowly drove—He knew no haste
          And I had put away
          My labor and my leisure too,
          For His Civility—"
          
          Answer for the last month:
          Sonnet 18 by William Shakespeare.

Hello Aesthetes!
          Welcome to October.
          Starting off this month with a double activity! Guess the Poet & a prompt
          
          Guess the Poet:
          "Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
          And summer’s lease hath all too short a date;
          Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
          And often is his gold complexion dimm’d;"
          
          Prompt: 
          Write a scene painting a picture of when you noticed you're in love. 
          Optional: Try writing the prompt in style of a ballad
          
          Massive shoutout to our community and everyone who participated in The Shorty's 2024!

The Shortys have come
          The Shortys did go,
          With just one goal
          To write it all
          
          The poets did write,
          With lines of words,
          Stories were told
          They won't go unheard
          
          It was fun and we'd wish to stay
          But don't worry, you'll see us another day. 
          
          To you all we show our gratitude
          But now It's time to conclude 
          The first of many
          When we appear again we hope you'll be ready
          
          So hold on dear writer for weeks to come
          You'll hear from us soon when we conclude
          The Shortys have ended
          It has been splendid

Hello Aesthetes!
