autumn - greens, oranges, gold, burgundy and bare branches |
October is my favorite
month. I make a real effort, in a good
way, to enjoy each and every moment.
The leaves are
changing colors, the daylight hours are getting shorter, and the nights are
getting cooler. Chores; like harvesting
the last of the garden veggies, cleaning up all the perennial beds, outside
painting, become hectic in trying to finish before the freezing temperatures
come and stay. Daily life becomes more
of a race as all the characteristics of this brief season are here signaling
the fast approaching winter.
I am outside as often
as possible taking in the last of the season’s glorious color. I make the most
of each minute. I slow my pace to relax
in the tranquility of my world.

I immerse myself in the color.
And, I am having a
grand time.
