There is cloud cover
As the leaves swirl at my feet
On this windy morn
The cool air hits me
And I can finally breathe
No stifling heat
Slowly colors change
Starting their metamorphous
Right before my eyes
Fall brings clarity
To my mind and to my soul
A cleansing of sorts
I must not leave home
Without a pen and paper
When I go for walks
As the haiku flies
I must capture its brilliance
Like a shining star
For once I am home
It’s likely those words left me
Stored away somewhere
May you watch for the changes and remember. XO, Margie
Love what you say about fall bringing clarity and the colors changing as we watch.
Best wishes from Wisconsin, Ellen

You are a brilliant ‘capturer’ of life MM, with your carefully crafted words, photography and art.
It is a treat to be able to ‘see’ the world through your eyes and I love the imagine you gifted us today of you soaking in the changes, pen and paper in hand.
Happiest of happy days,
xx Felicity
