A Day of Unexpected Changes

Variety

Changing skies of grey than blue
Remind us all
Of Nature's variety.

The Acceptance of Autumn

The Acceptance of Autumn
Like the Twilight to the Year
Purpose fulfilled, resting . . .
Waiting . . .
For Renewal.

Mild November Day

This morning is unbelievably mild for November, in West Cornwall, after a foggy evening. I drove to a choir rehearsal yesterday and had some difficulty on the way back seeing where I was driving because of the fog. I thought that this would last over a few days as it often does but today it is beautiful and clear with occasional glimpses of blue sky and sunshine. It was such a pleasant surprise and I had a lovely walk to do the shopping and back home again. A really wonderful respite from the recent wind and rain that we've been receiving and a brilliant reminder that winter doesn't always have to be cold, wet and miserable in this country.

Waterfall

This morning I went for a lovely walk. There are definite signs of autumn in the colour of the bracken and there was a sense of mistiness in the air which was quite mysterious. Noticed a waterfall that I had totally forgotten about in my many missions to the cliffs and photographed it. There was a gentle quietness in the valley that was very peaceful and pleasant. Later on I saw a Goldcrest in a tree.

Greenwich Mean Time

Am not looking forward so much to the shorter days and it getting darker earlier in the evening. Still it's that time of year again and I'm trying to get myself to appreciate the beauties of autumn and winter. Also Happy Samhain to everyone. May the following year bring to you all that your heart desires.

Awaiting Inspiration

I sit;
Hands on keyboard;
Brain on slow;
Hoping to catch
One thought
I can write about.
Oh the process is slow;
Like wading through treacle.
So I wrote this instead
