Fall reflection

If winter is slumber and spring is birth,

and summer is life, then autumn rounds out to be reflection.

It's a time of year when the leaves are down

and the harvest is in and the perennials are gone.

Mother Earth just closed up the drapes on another year

and it's time to reflect on what's come before. - Mitchell Burgess

At one time, I did not like autumn because it reminded me of the things to come - Winter. I have the tendency to forward think instead of being in the present. I've been striving to be in the "here and now" and to enjoy what is before me. This fall has been unseasonable warm, radiant in beauty for this I am thankful. - Jen
