Change is in the Air: Poetry and Fall, Maple Leaf Quilt and All




    Hi! I am thinking about Autumn right now. I know it is a little early, but the change of seasons seems to be in the air. I like the cooler nights and the colors. Pretty soon we will be seeing maple leaves turn, my favorite!

     What is it about seasons that draw us to embrace them or dread them? Spring has color and newness, summer has sun and water, and Fall (what I call Autumn) is ablaze with color and harvest, cooler temps and the beginning of holidays. Winter brings cold, Christmas, hot chocolate. I had to stretch on that last one, as Winter is not my favorite. 
    
     Do you have a favorite season? What is it about it that you anticipate? Feel inspired by?

     I hope to enjoy this change of seasons. I'd like to take lots of photos and spend time reading and writing outside. I might even get those three pumpkins on the porch like I say I will every year and never do!

Here is short poem, just for fun.

Changes

Leaves change their color
a glorious display of
hue and tone;
vibrant before their demise
how bold
how exuberant
one last show before they go.
Leaves alter
lives alter
one step on the path
that never ends
nothing stays the same.










My Mom's Maple Leaf Quilt.... I love it!!
