Greetings, dear friends!
How is it that only yesterday I was helping my daughters press carrot seeds into the freshly dug dirt...
and just this morning I noticed that maple leaves
have covered the now empty rows.
And is there a distinct chill of frost in the air?

Could the Summer Season really have passed by so quickly,
or could it be that I have been so caught up in all the details
that I did not notice that Autumn has long been at our door?
Come walk with me and visit some of the doings and goings on
that have kept me away from visiting with you
for much too long!
There was an Elven Slipper that finally found
a Shoemaker faerie to add the finishing touches.
Her name was Givanni and she was born with no wings.
She chose to live amongst the field mice...
and they
gave her flight
gave her flight
upon their Thistledown.
A tiny mite sculpted for my sister's birthday.
Field fences reinforced to keep the goats...
and the cows out of the neighboring farmer's corn field.
that never quite made it into the dinner pot.
A rescued young chipmunk
who filled our mornings with exuberant antics.
And finally a chocolate raspberry cake baked with love
and thoroughly enjoyed on
a (badly needed) refurbished front porch.
Watching the Sun set upon our full days...
So that is where the Summer went!!
I neglected to notice it's passing
as I was enjoying every moment of it.
I hope your creative fields are bursting
with bright blossoms
of days well spent...
And your Autumn is rich with many thankful reflections!
much love to you, Rose
