I Fall in Love with Fall

Winter dies into the spring, to be born again in the autumn. ~Terri Guillemets

I fall in love with fall every time it arrives!

The Autumn Gateway Has Opened

 

Autumn bowed to place a beautiful crown on the Queen of Morning,

 and her velvet robes sway merrily in the chilly breeze.

 ~Terri Guillemets

 

 

 

I welcome autumn with open arms once more!

Farewell Again Autumn

"Besides the autumn poets sing,
A few prosaic days
A little this side of the snow
And that side of the haze."
~Emily Dickinson

Dearest Autumn my love so fair
how I wish you would never leave.

Your colors a bounty beyond compare
in your arms I long to cleave.

Our time together too short once more
a twirling dance I don't want to end.

But like a fickle kiss you will ignore
and leave me alone over and over again.

So with these words I take one last gaze
to your mystery and all your charms.

For my heart you always swiftly take
as I await you with open arms.



I know that autumn is long since gone, but it is my favorite season, and when the words came I went with it like the wind.

What is your favorite season?

Autumn Speaks

It whispers of the journey home...

It converses with the wind...

It articulates the way with every step we take...

Its auburn lips only tell of wonders....

It has a silence that speaks of peace...

My heart sits and waits to hear it speak every October.

What does Autumn speak to you?

Like A Forest

Think Tank Prompt #16

This life is like a forest and our world is but a tree

and humanity is a flow of many colors like an abundant growth of leaves

each spread out and grow reaching toward the sky

and when the time is right we break loose and start to fly

but like the changing seasons our flight is soon a fall

we reach out like a weary hand and embrace heaven's call.
