Colors of a Season

this autumn has filled it's days

with a brilliant show of colors

light and shadow dance

a delight for our eyes

gals getting their gobble on:

Tamaracks don their golds

ankles of trees

cloaked in leaves

the storm could not veil all the sun's light

forest walks delight

wee fungi kin

but today

is another facet of autumn:

The Voices of the Day

the voices of the day
call to me
call to me
first the rivers song
rolling over rocks
whispers to my ear

the more i listen
the more i hear

the swell of the breeze
mingling with the trees

and their dry leaves
music in the air

autumn grass quite dry

bending in the breeze
crisp sounds they do make

the more i listen 

the more i hear

I went camping up the North Fork, Polebridge area last week

Autumn is entirely beautiful this year...
