Lets take a walk in the forest Treading on red gold and brown Leaves that the Autumn winds have spread Lay scattered on the ground
A few short months ago the leaves were fresh and green But the magic of nature has worked Now red gold and russet is seen In the gentle breeze the leaves do fall To lay in carpet rows all around
This is the season I love the most When the air is fresh and clean A coloured interlude before nature takes her rest Before once again new life is born And the earth once more refreshed
This is the season of plenty, nourishment there for all The season we call Autumn and some of you call it Fall All to soon Winter will come The season of festivals and fun
Soon it will be time to sit by the fire To write and tell of the year just expired To sit and reflect on the things we have seen And paint pictures of where we have been
Without the magic of nature, of the bounty that nature provides No one would be here today, None would be able to survive It's thanks to her that I can sit here and write Or maybe just dream sitting in front of my log burning fire
It's been a long time since I last posted here and a lot has gone on in my life. Four hours of surgery on my spine means that at 80 my life can start again Joe
