It seems just yesterday
that truly I was in Bliss
walking this forest
drinking in deeply
the majestic colors.
And just the other day
I again walked
this great forest
and none but bare
did I but see.

I know, Erika. Fall seemed to last a long time this year and man it was just SO gorgeous. Then in a breath, all gone. I was shocked when I went for my walk and as I did I asked when was the last time I was here? THREE days or something like that, and all that glorious color gone. *sigh* Now I am grieving yet I will I will I will fall in Love with Winter!!! I will!!! (((HUGS))) Amy ❤

Such a beautiful, nurturing path to walk. So calming and peaceful. Yes the beauty o the colors of change have fallen to the ground to be replaced by the stark truth of winter. I love the starkness of winter and the reminder that everything fades away and is reborn in another beauty and in another season.
Hugs Amy and have a wonderful Tuesday.

It was amazing how fast this transition happened, Marissa, for the leaves seemed to hang on “forever” and then within 2 days just gone. It was a shock to walk the same park and see no more glorious color that sent me to Bliss. Now I must adjust to the bare and find beauty within that as well. I shall, oh I shall!!! Love, Amy ❤

It must have been quite a shock but I suppose it happens. Yes, there is beauty in the bare branches as well, and then of course the snow…but here’s to hoping you don’t get as much as last year.
