england in autumn

 

After several days of unrelenting rain the sun arrives unexpectedly. The sky lifts clear of the clouds and starts to deepen, an eerie blue light chasing across the tops of the trees.

Oh to be in England in Autumn!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

entropy

 

 

 carry me crowned

past autumn's waiting belly

ringed with burnished leaves

and seed-heads

ready to spill

upon the cooling soil

carry me to the river

and lay my head by the water

so the weeds may rise and enfold me

in their green mantle

carry me across

to where my winter queen

lies

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

cut to the chase

I love mornings like this. Crisp and cold with frost underfoot and a glorious winter sun illuminating the beauty of nature. Roscoe the dog enjoyed it too!!
