Its time

Its downright cold today. Fall is creeping in. The sky is bluer, the leaves crispy crackly seeping orange and yellow from their summery green. The days are fading into cold night more quickly and I cannot pry myself out of warm cozy bed and onto chilly floorboards in the dim morning light.

But the pumpkins in my garden are turning orange on the browning grass.
Apple pie and apple cider and apple cake and sauteed apples make the house smell like spice and childhood.
Warm baths feel luxurious again.

I am ready for the gloriously shocking explosions of color in the trees, in my mind, in my life.


Its time for changing.
