Summer's lease hath all too short a date -Shakespeare
100 acorns
gathering a harvest of peace
~~~
the light begins to wane
above this rather tiny island
chestnuts and beeches letting loose
their harvest
oaken leaves that just begin to curl
goldenrod and yellow asters
and sumac turning orange
painting the landscape at Marjoram park
when we bring them home
and sumac turning orange
painting the landscape at Marjoram park
when we bring them home
we lay them on the nature table
a gentle reminder that seasons are circular...
the earth spins
and with it
trees, and leaves, and seeds, and pods
small boys, maturing young women
and olden people
who lived long ago
in a land without wi-fi.

we light the candles on the dinner table
we share our daily highs and lows
we share our daily highs and lows
and savor these last few weeks
before school starts....
Your post calms my heart today and makes me think of - "quietness."
ReplyDeleteOh, to turn off the noise and just talk. To sit and enjoy each other's company.
I came over today on Women with Intention to find your post.
Thanks for sharing the simple things in life.
Hope you have a blessed day~

Nice acorns you collected. The green ones are still firm not ripe, but make for a nice deco.

Shakespeare had quite a way with words, and so do you. :) This was just beautiful and a precious offering of grace today. Thank you!
