Changing Seasons

Changing Seasons

The changing of the season from August to September is uplifting. Humidity is disappearing, crisp air revives our spirits. Leaves change colors, russet and reds and goldens appear. Bonfires lift smokey fragrances around afternoon family gatherings. Trees dropping leaves become skeletal artistry.

September is here
golden hills, leafy-red trees
summer is going


"too hot" is waning
decreasing humidity
Joyful afternoons


raking crisp brown leaves
smoldering fires cleaning
bare trees become art.
