Autumn Leaf Of The Day #21

 

“Once upon a time is now.” 

~Emilie Autumn 

 

Autumn is a Once Upon A Time season. It always feels like a fairy tale to me, but with many stories withing the story. I wait all year for it, and as it begins it reminds me that fairy tales have endings, so I try to not miss a minute of the story! Be in the now!

Autumn Leaf Of The Day #20/I Darrin Take This Witch, Samantha

 

 “Swinging on delicate hinges; the Autumn Leaf; Almost off the stem”

 

 ~Jack Kerouac

 

Bewitched

I loved Bewitched as a little girl. Maybe that's where my love for all things witches came from. I also enjoyed the sequel from the late 70's called, Tabitha, but had some of the original players been available, it could have given it a more authentic feel. But as I said, I enjoyed it a lot, and looked forward to it. Tabitha was my age, so it was relatable on that score. Plus, Robert Ulrich as Tabitha's love interest. I had quite the crush on him, and so, I was a fan. There was just too much not to enjoy! But this is the episode that started it all. The Bewitched pilot. Maybe I will post an episode of Tabitha tomorrow. Stay tuned!

 

Enjoy!

 

 

Autumn Leaf Of The Day #19

 

“All things are symbols: the external shows,

 of Nature have their image in the mind, 

as flowers and fruits and falling of the leaves”

 

 ~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

 

 

Autumn Leaf Of The Day #18/Filling Dark Days With Light

 

“The crisp air and vibrant colors of fall

 can fill even the darkest days with light.”

 

~Unknown 

 

Everything is kinda dark right now. From unprecedented storms, to what might very well be the last election in my lifetime. There is a lot to fear, so I am grateful for my leaves and my birds that help my mind feel rested. I miss my Dylan, we used to have long talks about the things that bothered us. He understood me in a way that was comforting and bridged any language barrier. He always could read my emotions.

 

 

Autumn Leaf Of The Day #17/Lemon Lime Onion

 

“Autumn carries more gold in its pocket than all the other seasons.”

 

 ~Jim Bishop  

 

Lemon and lime leaves,

 meet lemon and lime fruit... and an onion. 

 

I love autumn.

"Love the trees until their leaves fall off,

 then encourage them to try again next year."

Autumn Leaf Of The Day #15/The Poetry Of Horror

 

“Your hair is winter fire
January embers
My heart burns there, too.”

 
~Stephen King

  It

 

That's one of my favorite quotes from movies ever! It's romantic, sweet and innocent, all at the same time. If you have never read the book, or seen the original TV mini-series, please do. The 2017 theatrical remake lacked soul in my opinion. I felt no emotional connection with the characters, but I sure did with the original. It haunted me in many ways, for a long time. Just the way a story, when told excellently, should. It's the pure poetry of horror.
