So beautiful! I adore autumn.
Me too Fi, and it’s been so sunny and warm so far this year 🙂
If I could put my foot in the door and stop it, I would! The colour is lovely but the wind is currently tearing them off and battering them. 🙂
I know Jo, I walked this evening in the woods and the wind was rustling and sweeping through the tree tops and the air was filled with swirling leaves…..magical. There was a lovely thick carpet of crisp dry leaves underfoot 🙂
Thanks again for bringing my attentions back to what matter. As a previous comment of mine may have suggested, it’s been a difficult time and we got word last evening that an event we have been anticipating did, at last, occur. [I am sure, given your profession, you can guess … close cousin.] The next few days promise to be difficult. As long as I can keep the bonnie skies of Scotland in mind it’ll be OK. D PS: Sorry to be a downer … but, as I have been known to say, life is an oscillator.
I’m sorry to hear about your cousin David. Death always leaves such a gaping hole, as we move through loss. Nature can be such a salve when we feel this pain, she continues onwards in endless cycles of death and birth, soothing in her eternal rhythm. And her beauty of course lifts our hearts.
Beautiful! Autumn lasted but a brief time here – Old man winter approaches . Your haiku perfect.
Thank you, and today winter swept her cold breath into the Scottish air. It was ten degrees colder today, and this evening a wild wintery wind was sweeping through the woods, plucking the trees.
The same here Seonaid! Winter arrived today. Snow in the surrounding hillsides.
Wonderful!
Glad you enjoyed the post Brenda 🙂
Crisp Seonaid ! Love your name!
Why thank you. My name’s Scottish Gaelic, and very common up in the Highlands around Skye and Rosshire.
Its so romantic in a literal sense. Love to write it!
The glorious Autumn is beautiful presented via your lovely Haiku and photo, nice!
Great to hear you enjoyed the combination of words and image…..the image came first 🙂
Great word picture
Thanks Michael, nature as a muse at her best 🙂
Autumn is here as well. Today is one of the first rainy days – it’s been warm and glorious!
We even had a little dash of hail this morning, but then the sun came back bathing everything in gold.
Love the blue sky! Beautiful contrasts
Thanks, the autumn light has been lovely this year, so bright and golden 🙂
A lovely Haiku in its traditional sense and perfect with your photo. I fear you’re right, autumn arrived today. When I went for my lunchtime stroll it was a couple of degrees colder then walking to work this morning.
I noticed that too today, although it’s still lovely and bright the air is much cooler, and I heard the geese honking overhead. A sure sign winters breath is on its way 🙂
Here in New England, the days have been in the mid 60’s and the nights are dropping to the mid 30’s. The days are good for doing fall chores. 🙂
It’s been such a glorious Autumn here so far, the light has been wonderful, and the trees are changing very slowly 🙂
