Signs of the season are
slipping into our mountains:
a scarlet leaf rides
the wind and walnuts
pop up on trees.
A thousand sunflowers
nod their amber heads
in the meadow as butterflies
perform a beautiful ballet.
Dragonflies do angular dives
as goldfinches twirl in rhythm,
a sapphire skyline appears
like a backdrop to the stage.
An orchestration of this scene:
happiness is a butterfly
alighting when we rest.

As fall approaches, I wish my blogger friends a Happy Autumn!
