ONCE UPON A AUTUMN DAY

Even thought I have a hour long drive to work each day, I can't complain, as there is no traffic, and most of my drive is all very rural, and who could complain with scenery like this? Autumn has just about sung it's tune here. Over the last week or two I captured some snaps of my excursion to and from work......

 

Once Upon a Autumn- Joseph T. Renaldi

Once Upon an autumn day,
Colorful leaves began to fade
In the midst of a chilly, frosty air
As multitude of trees grew steadily bare.

Once upon an autumn day,
The whispering breeze was here to stay
Moving aimlessly through the countless trees
Scattering leaves with the greatest of ease.

Once upon an autumn day,
The leaves whirled freely in every way,
Until at last they came to rest
Finding a haven in which to nest.

Once upon an autumn day,
The trees were dormant, and the leaves lay
Waiting for the winter snow to fall
To quickly obscure them one and all

 

This week, most of the trees are all empty now. Just last week the tree below, which is outside my windows was full.........

 

But inside, it cast the most magnificent hue across the whole living room!

Bonnie and Clyde are still here every day.......

 

The Nut Hatches and my finch are still feeding also, among tons of others....

Of course , it also meant I whipped out the big bird for the next holiday....

Soon it will be so long Autumn.....and then my hibernation will begin. I am ready to be a hermit and start cocooning.........
