Fall, so fleeting and beautiful.



For how many years did I wander slowly
through the forest. What wonder and
glory I would have missed had I ever been 
in a hurry!

Leaves and Blossoms Along the Way


Mary Oliver does say it the best sometimes. In our forest, the dogs and I take our sweet time. I let the dogs lead while I look around it leads to interesting wandering.



Fall/Autumn flashes by so quickly. I wish I could slow it down. I know I can't. But that is the my wish.

I wish the trees would take more time and slowly change colors while hanging on to their leaves.

But nature is the boss and we are just the witnesses.

  1. Mary Oliver can make saying “Good morning” lyrical and poetic.

  2. Wonderful photos, especially that one of the oak leaf spotlighted by the strong sun beam!
