Ode to Autumn Beauty

Perspectives of time
Of letting go
Slowing down
Cleaning up
Cooling off
Walking faster
Making preparations
Finishing tasks
Covering the soil
Saving seeds
Wearing socks and sweatshirts and sweaters
Taking nature photos
Hiking
Walking
Breathing deeply
Pumpkins
Thanksgiving
And of reacquainting with
Darkness, windchill and color.
A sabbatical from summer.
