Autumn’s blush
Autumn’s lilac blush
In the early morning
Brings peace.

From heron to eternity
What is more delicious than the bright flames of autumn
And the zen of a heron gliding over the water
Before flying off into eternity?

Cloudscapes
Sometimes the rising sun (arriving later and later every day)
Sets the trees aflame;
As for the clouds,
They give double joy:
Once in the sky and once in water reflected.

Autumn surprises
Autumn is a golden
Curtain of leaves;
It’s the russet fur
Of autumn-coloured dogs;
And the surprise of deer
Blending in with the trees.

Floating in mist
The first cool morning:
Autumn mist is golden
As it caresses trees
And floats over the lone dog walker.
(All photos snapped with my mobile phone.)

Curtains of light
Late August is a beautiful time of year
For light.
Fields of gold glow in the early morning;
Curtains of light float to the ground;
And diamond drops glitter
In the deliciously chilly air.
For more de-lights, please go to: Our World.
Deer gazing
Autumn is a good time for the deer:
One minute you only see fields,
And the next minute, the deer are there.
Their dance is perfectly synchronized:
Eyes front …
Eyes right
(And look surprised).
Exit left
And enjoy the golden light of autumn.

Swan lake – with mist
A chilly morning dawned
Bringing out the colours of the leaves
And the swans.
They appeared out of the mist
Like feathered ships.
The sun bursting through the trees
Placed stripes of light on the swan’s neck.
Closer and closer the swan sailed
Beautiful in the lilac dawn.
For more swan songs, please go to: Our World.
The sentinel
A strange pink glow
Beckoned me out into the storm.
There on the rickety jetty,
Was a lone goose
Staring out into the sunset.
It was a moment full of poignancy and beauty.
Just him and me
And the whisper of autumn.
For more lovely moments, please go to: Skywatch.
Be-dewed
Autumn went by in the blink of an eye,
But before it disappeared, it left some dewy gifts:
Yellow suns,
A spent sunflower
Adorned with a spider’s web,
A glorious necklace of dewdrops
On soft petals,
Hot pink
Rainy flowers,
And a dreamy
Pink tutu.
