THE MEANING OF AUTUMN


Autumn is the bridesmaid of Summer and the flowergirl of Winter.
Autumn whispers the tones of yesterday in a minor key.

I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

Almost Winter Rain Clouds

Moody stirring skies
Grey rolling billows of cloud
Evening weeps with joy

I sense a gentle release with your kind words to the skies. Glad you got your shopping done before the rain.

There is a very ominous feeling about those clouds, I like your poetic 'evening clouds weeping with joy!'
