1418. And all at once, Summer collapsed into Fall ~Oscar Wilde

Summer lingering in spasms,
She must abdicate with grace.
This is changing of the seasons.
Fall is slipping into place.
~Excerpt from a poem

the air is different today
the wind sings with a new tone
sighing of changes
coming
the harvest gathered
a flower, a nut
some mead, and bread
a candle and a prayer
returning the fruits
in thanksgiving
to the grove
and receiving
it’s blessing again

He(God) changes times and seasons; he deposes kings and raises up others. He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to the discerning. ~Daniel 2:21  ✝

  2. I was out in the woods today with Gregory and I really marveled at how quickly we went from “Summer” to a deep Fall—it was like poof—everything was hot, dry, green and today was damp and chilly as colored leaves fell from the trees littering the wood’s floor—it’s really amazing how the change comes in the twinkle of the eye…..
