The wind blew for 24 hours, the first rain in weeks drenched the gardens, and now the ground is covered with twigs and branches and many, many leaves--green leaves wrenched untimely from their homes, leaves that will not turn red or orange or gold in October. It's long-sleeve weather, sock-and-boot weather, put-away-the-fans weather.

It's me! with my hair getting in my eyes, and Theo's ears floating on the gusts, both of us relishing the crisp edge to the almost-fall weather.
ReplyDeleteAlison, so THAT's who I was drawing. Sorry I got Theo's color wrong!
ReplyDeleteI missed the storm! It was just pouring in Poughkeepsie...
ReplyDeleteIndigo, you would have seen the sudden turning of summer into fall.
ReplyDeleteI am eagerly awaiting this weather, myself. Ah, the joys of putting on that favorite cozy sweater for the first time and curling up in the chair with a steaming mug of tea...
ReplyDeleteJoya, don't you love the change of seasons?
