Autumn Leaf Of The Day #70

 

“It was the best time of the year. Frost at night and warm, sunny days, when the yellows and oranges of the aspen and cottonwoods did something to the blue of the sky behind them that an artist might never mimic.” 

~Peter Heller,
 

 

Autumn Leaf Of The Day #69

 

“Sleep now a little while
Till within our dreams we wake
Unfolding our Forever
If only for Never’s sake

And take me to your ever after
Let’s hide behind our eyes
Together pour through that door
Where autumn never dies

And I’ll sift my sands to your side
Before we slip away
Before we’re little more than silt
Beneath the rocking waves

And side by side we’ll fight the tide
That sweeps in to take us down
And hand in hand we’ll both withstand
Even as we drown.” 

~Kelly Creagh,

Happy Thanksgiving 2024

 


Yes, it's true, this Thanksgiving will be very different, but it's the little things that will get me by, like holding onto the whimsy when I can. My amazing, husband is making dinner tonight, so what more can I ask for on this day? 
 
I am thankful, for this one day.
 

“Give thanks as if you are living just to appreciate life. Live as if your life depends on love, kindness, gratitude, and thanksgiving.”

Autumn Leaf Of The Day #65

 

“I’m just here for the autumn leaves and cozy sweaters.”
 
 ~Unknown
 
Sometimes I think that's why I am here on earth. To save in time, through photography, 90 or so autumn leaves. But I do enjoy everything about autumn, the migrating birds, the cozy sweaters, the holiday food and drinks and the comfy warm blankets. It's a whole life, lived in just about three months, although I start a little early, and leave a little late. And there's nothing wrong with that.
 
How can it already be November 25th?

“The Sussex lanes were very lovely in the autumn . . . spendthrift gold and glory of the year-end . . . earth scents and the sky winds and all the magic of the countryside which is ordained for the healing of the soul.”

Autumn Leaf Of The Day #63
