Thoughts for Fall



It's more than enough to sit beneath an oak tree 
under a beautiful October sky...


Song Sparrow

To know the little feathered critters 
hiding in the brush and grass...


White-crowned Sparrow

To share time and place 
with Nature's silent life...





To watch a spider 
glide along silky strands...


Marbled Orb Weaver

To hear a call note
and know the being it belongs to...


Yellow-rumped Warbler

But how sad it would be to have less.
