Autumn's Smile

long shadows

golden light

red rushing leaves

Autumn

...

what is it about this season that makes one sigh

do we feel a bit of relief from the summers' crazy days filled with all our projects 

running here  ~   running there 

although these days are filled with much work

harvesting the last in the garden, canning, buttoning up

it is a sense of "well done"

Fall is the time for lingering evening dinners

stews and soups

baking bread

evening fires

long walks though the colorful woods

tis a time for reflection

  autumn 
  the year's last 
  loveliest smile 
                   >>. William Cullen Bryant

winter is an etching

spring a watercolor

summer an oil painting 

& autumn a mosaic of them all

how right it is to love flowers 
and the greenery of pines and ivy and hawthorn hedges
they have been with us from the very beginning
>>.Vincent van Gogh

        peace and sunshine to you
