The
three little munchkins wait for their mom to finish dinner. These are my three 'fostered' kittens from our local animal shelter. They were full so they will stay with me for 8 weeks and then be adopted..
Fall has arrived and it makes for more interesting and colourful walks. Another week and we will see a big change in our Maple Trees.
It is beginning to look like Fall. The tops of the trees are bursting with red, orange, gold & yellow leaves.
I am catching any that fall to enjoy their fleeting beauty. It will soon be a new month and our trees will be ablaze with colour.
October
O HUSHED October morning mild,
Thy leaves have ripened to the fall;
To-morrow's wind, if it be wild,
Should waste them all.
The crows above the forest call;
To-morrow they may form and go.
O hushed October morning mild,
Begin the hours of this day slow,
Make the day seem to us less brief.
Hearts not averse to being beguiled,
Beguile us in the way you know;
Release one leaf at break of day;
At noon release another leaf;
One from our trees, one far away;
Retard the sun with gentle mist;
Enchant the land with amethyst.
Slow, slow!
For the grapes' sake, if they were all,
Whose leaves already are burnt with frost,
Whose clustered fruit must else be lost--
For the grapes' sake along the wall.

This beautiful time of year will go fast so we have to enjoy each day.
You are never far from a tea-pot in my home. I think it is safe to say I am a collector.
I have been pouring more tea lately and enjoying the company....I wonder why?
hugs, Deb =^..^=
