Proof of autumnal equinox growth
Statues of copper and gold
Inquisite offerings below
A bed of blonde pine needles
Seasonal textures, blanket of relief
Yes, here forever, so as long as I don’t have to lead the discussion. Your flattery will get you everywhere, you know. I am doing my best to type thank you and offer a curtsey, instead of the normal denial of worthiness. Smooch.
Well, we did eat the mushrooms.
But it was the mushrooms’ fault for being tasty.
Actually that’s a horrible argument, because ravenous lions could use it to justify eating us.
Then again, humans are not mushrooms…
Sorry, it’s late. 🙂 Have a good night!
See? Explains the circle of life, I’d say. Eyes see something special and our brains react. Just as a lion’s brain says, “I’m hungry.”
Haha. Night! Or afternoon!
Yeah, whatever the heck time of day it is when you read this. I’m always jealous you people to the west because it always seems like you have an extra hour in your day. 🙂 But of course, not really…
I love the Fall and the blanket of pine needles. The break between below/a bed was interesting. It made me have to stop and read it twice. So much internet poetry is sing-song – which is fine, but kind of makes you a bit rusty – that I expected the thought to break where it was not intended. A good wake-up on a cold, November morning.
I find that to be one of the best compliments I’ve ever received, Eric. Thank you! I prefer to surprise you. Keep you on your toes. Enjoy your day. I really enjoy fall. There isn’t a better time.. xx Such a lovely comment.
Great shot. Very colorful Auds
