Just Another Week Day in November

“The month of November makes me feel that life is passing more quickly. In an effort to slow it down, I try to fill the hours more meaningfully” Henry Rollins

Just Another Week Day in November

Oh how time flies
Right in front of my eyes
Like a time laps movie
Running by the history

The sun rises and sun sets
Fluffy clouds a wonder
Rain and thunder
Making the ground wet

It used to be January
Now it is already November
Maybe it was just imaginary
Or just something I remember

“Delicious autumn! My very soul is wedded to it, and if I were a bird I would fly about the earth seeking the successive autumns” George Eliot

Leaves of November

The colours may be fading
The cold nights not aiding
The circle of life still a fact
Use camouflage to distract?

Winter knocking at the door
Trying hard to ignore
Yearn for life weighing more
Growing stronger than before

The End of Colour

October: The month of wellingtons and mackintoshes
Photography and Poetry

“Now Autumn’s fire burns slowly along the woods and day by day the dead leaves fall and melt” William Allingham

The End of Colour

This is the end of colour
Of the pain and sorrow!
The October rain
Finally came
Lashed down the leaves
Now it’s just heaps
Of gray on the ground
No colour to be found
It is the end of colour

October Morning Frost

“But frost, like the crystallized dreams of autumn, began to coat the clearing with its sugar glaze.” Victoria Steele Logue, Redemption

October Morning Frost

Nature in pending status
Almost like being on hiatus
Leaves of multicolour
Covered with sugary frost
The misty air softly hovers
Over last night’s rain drops
Now frozen in their spots
A glimmer of sunlight
The only a reflection in sight
Soon enough the colour fades
The frost of rain only remains
And the Autumn turns
To Winter

World Wide Wednesday Presents: Finland, Espoo Suburbia

Posted on October 21, 2015 by Gun Roswell

“A man travels the world over in search of what he needs and returns home to find it”
George A. Moore

World Wide Wednesday Presents: Finland, Espoo Suburbia

When you travel around the world, how many times upon return have you commented: “Well, that was fun, but home sweet home!”
Today a trip of a different kind
It’s surprising what you can find
When stepping, outside your door
Amazing, what beauty to score

The grass may be greener
On the other side of the fence
But sometimes you may be keener
To save a few more cents

Pick up the pace and lift your feet
Wander down your home street
The mundane soon turns to treasure
Leaving you with feelings of pleasure

So when not in Rome
Safe in home sweet home

October Saturday, Part Two

“October is the fallen leaf, but it is also a wider horizon more clearly seen. It is the distant hills once more in sight, and the enduring constellations above them once again” Hal Borland

October Saturday, Part Two

Standing in the sun’s light
Between the tall shadows
Selfies of a different kind
Listening to the echoes
Before the end of twilight
And the rising of the moon
Night time falling soon

October Saturday, Part One

Photography and Poetry

“October sunshine bathed the park with such a melting light that it had the dimmed impressive look of a landscape by an old master” Elizabeth Enright

October Saturday, Part One

Finally, weekend
Truly a godsend
A time to enjoy and relax
Lift your feet up and chillax

But, being my usual self
Could not just sit down
Grabbed the camera from the shelf
And ran down town

Sunlight on Saturday
Watching the shadows play
Colours of leaves in abundance
The birds and flies doing a dance

Sun warming the air
Not a time to despair
The cold and damp weather
Replaced by light and high pressure
