A Celebration of a Season of Change

This week we are celebrating a season of change with the vibrancy of Autumn colors.
Chrysanthemums pop up in the most unexpected places.
Pumpkins abound in all their glory.
 There is something incredibly nostalgic and significant about
the annual cascade of autumn leaves.
~Joe L. Wheeler (as found in Victoria Magazine)
There is a change in the air.
The light changes in mysterious ways.
And we celebrate the autumn equinox
with a dance under the full moon.

"Dip the brush in bronze and chrome
Of goldenrod and rusty loam;
In purple, crimson, in the brown
Of sudden beechnuts thudding down."

from Colors for a Palette, Kitchen Sonnets by Ethel Romig Fuller

Again I will be away for a few days and back next Monday.
If your comment doesn't show up for awhile it will eventually.
Have a delightful Autumn weekend, dear friends!
Enjoy some time walking outdoors and exploring.

What a wonderful season, indeed. I love that last picture, Marilyn. It looks like a foggy day. The Mums are a perfect Autumn color. Mums always remind me of school, when we could buy Mums for that special someone during the football season. Your pictures always bring a smile to my face. Is that an angel with the pumpkins? Such a sweet picture.
