Autumn Wind

When autumn wind goes running
It does some magic things.
It gives the shadows dancing shoes
It gives the bright leaves wings
When autumn wind goes running

It curls the bonfire's tail of smoke
And shares a little whispered joke
With cornstalks who delight to prattle
It turns a seed pod into a rattle
When autumn wind goes running

Good morning! Ah, Fall has finally arrived! My favorite season (maybe tied with Spring) Wolfie looks very handsome in autumn's colors. :)

I just scanned Saturday's and Sunday's threads and saw lots of nice posts and pretty graphics.

Thank you, Meg, for Sunday's beautiful opening, and your first 'friends' graphic is one of my favorites - had made a hostess graphic with it for the Finest, altering it just a tad to fit the sistahs!

September
 
  We sit late, watching the dark slowly unfold:
No clock counts this.
When kisses are repeated and the arms hold
There is no telling where time is.

It is midsummer: the leaves hang big and still:
Behind the eye a star,
Under the silk of the wrist a sea, tell
Time is nowhere.

We stand; leaves have not timed the summer.
No clock now needs
Tell we have only what we remember:
Minutes uproaring with our heads

Like an unfortunate King's and his Queen's
When the senseless mob rules;
And quietly the trees casting their crowns
Into the pools.

Ted Hughes
