Peace in August!....No no I mean Autumn!


I

am
having
dreams
of
Fall!


With the spectrum of warm colors that will cast against a September sky.

A harvest moon hanging in the black-drop heavens.

The shuffling along in the faded leaves, that are then turned back to Mother Natures compost.

The various sizes, shapes, and colors of pumpkins. Filling rows upon rows in the farmers fields for Jack-o-Lanterns and home greetings.

All the roadside stops along the byways, with their temptations and luring of "tricks or treats."


The wafting of aroma's, in the blends of nutmeg and cinnamon.

All the cool days and cold nights.

Staying under the blanket in the cold early mornings.

Escaping to a secret grove of God's true beauty. Trees standing tall and covered in fire and gold. All of the Ya-ya's very own.

Special tastes that only happen in the Autumn months.

Pie's and breads. Stews and soups.

Yankee and Gold Canyon
candles in all their "fall" scents.

A holiday set for giving thanks for the bounty's, that we are blessed to hold before us.

A soft lit fire where we sit and ponder this wacky and beautiful life. Where beloved pets curl up by and sleep with dreams of chasing rabbits.

The many sweater's, scarves, hat's, and mitten's, knitted by hand with love.


Ho-hum.....

I do believe that I am going to have to go up in the attic this weekend.

It is obvious that I am in need of some "fall-fairiness."


Because,

I
am
dreaming
of
Fall
and
it's
not
arriving
fast
enough
for
me!

Fall is fun. I love seeing the beautiful changing colors of the leaves. But I am still enjoying summer too. Being able to sit outside in the shade with an iced tea, read a god book, and listen to Summer Sunshine by the Corrs and my Ryan Adams playlist and enjoy the soft breezes that come along is pretty nice. :) When Fall comes though, I am pulling out the camera and maybe some paint too. Love the scenery of it all. :)

Time and Space may separate lives, but it is soothing to know that Bovard and Galt took the Peace Train to a wonderful life, blessed with love and laughter, friends and family, art and music, (an occasional beer), and the freedom of expression. Search no more, you have found your peace.
RAVE ON! ROCK ON! KEEP THE FAITH!
STAY CREATIVE! AND KEEP ON WRITING!
