Promise of a great day

"Morning is an important time of day, because how you spend your morning can often tell you what kind of day you are going to have."

From The Blank Book by Lemony Snicket

Hello October

There is no season when such pleasant and sunny spots may be lighted on, and produce so pleasant an effect on the feelings, as now in October.

Nathaniel Hawthorne

Rainy September morning

 




Be still, sad heart, and cease repining;
Behind the clouds is the sun still shining;
Thy fate is the common fate of all,
Into each life some rain must fall,
Some days must be dark and dreary.
     from the poem, The Rainy Day
     Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Autumn leaves

I see a whale and the whale sees me.

The last flowers of fall

 


What sunshine is to flowers, smiles are to humanity.  These are but trifles, to be sure; but scattered along life's pathway, the good they do is inconceivable.

Joseph Addison

Swing

          September.

Milkweed

 The milkweed pods are breaking,

And the bits of silken down

Float off upon the autumn breeze

Across the meadows brown.

Old gravestone

The living come with grassy tread
To read the gravestones on the hill;
The graveyard draws the living still,
But never anymore the dead.
      From In a Disused Graveyard
      by Robert Frost

 Hmmmm?

Which way to go?
