Welcome to mid-september. As school resumes in these topsy turvy times and the seasons start to change it can be a very busy and distracting time, especially for families. So, today I wanted to share some photos and a couple of poems with you to enjoy alone, or with your family. So, grab a tea or hot chocolate, a cozy blanket and take a deep breath or two and bask in this moment of Autumn relaxation just for you... you deserve it!

AUTUMN LOVE - J.J.KUSPIRA 

I love autumn because of its colours and the cool breeze.

A reminder that change is inevitable just look at the leaves.

Wishing the greens of the forest a fond farewell, as they leave the trees and the weeds 

A reminder that time is precious, so like the mighty maple pause and just be.

I love autumn because it's a time of giving thanks and reflection.

A reminder that seasons must change, it is time to explore a new direction. 

Watching the game of peek-a-boo of red, orange and gold covering the treetops above.

A reminder that all things in this life are beautiful, especially through the eyes of love. 

 AN AUTUMN DAY - J.J.KUSPIRA

How the brilliance of your colours decorate the trees short and tall.

Welcome back again Autumn you are my favourite season of all.

How the gentle wind from the north rustles your leaves.

Wishing a sweet "Bon Voyage" to the milkweed fluff, as it floats on the breeze.

How Majestic your treetops look laced with red and gold

"Welcome back" whispers winds from the North, oh so cold. 

How beautiful, unchanging and rugged the trunks of your trees.

Wishing the greens of the forest a fond farewell as they cover less of the leaves.

Autumn, your beauty and silent wisdom always make me smile.

Autumn, thank you for inviting us to join you, even if it is just for a little while.
