Everything about autumn is perfect to me. Wooly jumpers, Wellington boots, scarves, thin first, then thick, socks. The low slanting light, the crisp mornings, the chill in my fingers, those last warm sunny days before the rain and the wind. Her moody hues and subdued palate punctuated every now and again by a brilliant orange, scarlet or copper goodbye. She is my true love.

That is fantastic you find autumn so inspiring. I sort of have dual feelings: there is so much beauty in nature hesitating to go to rest, but the winter is near and that’s what I do not take too well. I’m commenting as if from my primary blog, but other thmes are on the secondary blog https://inesepogalifeschool.com/
I, like you, do not take to winter all that well either and do find autumn inspiring. Thanks for dropping by.
Beautiful. ..
But Autumn is a “He”.
How you know this. Wisdom spills over.
You’re making fun of me, aren’t you?
Absolutely not!
Beautiful, David! <3
Hi Marion. It is…
Love is the steering wheel of our emotions. Well done David. :o)
Good morning Patricia. Thank you.

Autumn … best time!
I love and welcome, Fall’s beauty, the comfort, colors, cooler temperatures, lingering pace and spicy flavors of Autumn…it is not a romantic time of year? My wedding anniversary is this month!
Congratulations!
The harvest moon, the harvest time, the nesting time…
It’s a coin toss between autumn and winter as to which is my favorite season. I, too, love the light this time of year, the colors, the smells, the freshness of the air, the whispers of wood smoke beginning to drift from a chimney here and there. Mother Nature’s siren song, calling us to walk in the woods, breathe deeply, slow down, burrow in. Ah……
Really?!?! Coin toss? Never pegged you being anyway near Winter….
Oh yeah, I LOVE winter. To me there is nothing sweeter than a pending blizzard, a roaring fire, a nice bottle of red and a good book. Perfect!!
Ahhhh, the “Inside” part. Got it!
moody hues and subdued palates punctuated…..Beautiful
It is….
It is a beautiful time of year! Even though I’m a huge fan of summer ☀️🏊🏄🏾🚣🏼
ah, the copper goodbye…
Copper goodbye. Love that.
Autumn arrives so gently and ramps up its colors and smells as the day’s pass…
Yes…gently. You inspired this morning’s post. Stand by.
