Anticipation
Summer’s chapter ends
Autumn’s colors being groomed—
Landscape awakens

Fulfillment
Summer’s gate closes
Autumn’s eager to open—
Cascading colors

Transformation
Summer’s warmth fading
Sunlight’s arc sliding lower—
Autumn here at last

From the words of American farmer, artist, and writer, Rowland E. Robinson: “September days have the warmth of summer in their briefer hours, but in their lengthening evenings a prophetic breath of autumn air.”
you make autumn sound so nice, but I am going to miss summer…

We’ve received very little rain since July. The grass looks more ready for winter than autumn. I imagine you’ll enjoy a few more summer-like days.

My favorite season is fall and when my daughters were little and I would rake the leaves we were all jump in after I would make a big pile 🍁🍂
