October

 
I love October

It is the month of flagrant fall
Autumn in all her splendour
Changes colours
With her moods
Dark green giving way to crimson
Gold
Orange
Red
Sepia
With the backdrop of sapphire skies
Silvery clouds 
A full autumn moon at night
Perhaps

Fall awakens memories
Traditions of the past
Are remembered
As shorter days
Beckon one home
And the warmth within 

For me
Basking in nature’s autumn moods
Is just the thing to do

These lovely features of fall
Shroud the holidays ahead
And the meaninglessness
Of all their pointless hustle and bustle

SO TRUE...WE CANNOT BUY 'HIS PEACE'. INDEED, THE GREATEST GIFTS THAT WE HAVE...ARE ENTIRELY FREE, AND WE DON'T HAVE TO LABOR FOR THEM AT ALL. 'HE' FILLS OUR EYES WITH 'HIS' MAJESTY... WE NEED ONLY 'REACH'. I LOVE THIS TIME OF YEAR, WHICH FOR ME IS A PRELUDE TO CELEBRATING THE GREATEST 'GIFT' WE HAVE EVER RECEIVED AND AS I CONSIDERED YOUR LAST STANZA, THIS FACT HIT HOME. THE REALLY MEANINGFUL THINGS THAT WE CAN EMBRACE AND ENJOY, DON'T COST US A PENNY, THEY ARE ALL AROUND US, LIGHTING THAT FIRE WITHIN...ONLY REQUIRING OUR OPEN HEARTS AND FAITH. HAPPY AUTUMN, REGIS! THANKS FOR SHARING. LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...HIS+INSPIRATIONS

There is nothing like a warm afternoon in Indian Summer to take time out just to relax in some quiet glade and just listen to all the creatures scurrying about in their rush to get ready for winter to come while the waning sun casts a spell on all the colors of the leaves and grasses all around. Conjuring up musky scents that can only be captured this time of year. This glorious time of year to experienced quietly… Either alone or with a lover.

I love this poem. It takes me out to the woods, that changing mood, more introspective. Wonderful how you connect elements of nature, sky and moon and clouds. Beautiful!

I love the rustic images you painted with your words. there is something very special about the coming of fall. Moods change, days are shorter as cripness fills the air. I love the crackle, crunch of leaves beneah my feet and the beauty that fills earth! GREAT WRITE!

Indeed, indeed it is a time for reflection about that which really matters.
Time to turn an old leaf.

Like you Regis I LOVE October…
My son was born on 1st of this month, and I’ll
never forget the beautiful golden sun and bright
blue sky early that glorious morning..

You have delighted my senses totally with your
delightful descriptions of this enchanting time of year..
The layout and colours you have chosen enhance the mood so well..
and the remembrance of memories of this season,
oh so many to reflect on…

I loved every word!

My best wishes always,
Diana…🍁🍃
