earth-tones saturate autumn pumpkins and flowers - seedtime fruitfulness
time of golden light season of raking shadows - fall falls on farm fields
goldenrod seed heads foreshadow the coming snow - blowing drifty fluff
goldenrod seed heads foreshadow the coming snow - blowing drifty fluff
that liminal time when green and gold are partners - october brilliance
sulfer-shelf mushrooms - fashioned like fans for pharaoh to freshen the woods

Warning! Danger! Bees! - their honey-nest just outside wisely-closed window
a rain-softened day - wispy-mist gentles the eyes colors glow lines blend
the empty heartspace - aches to be filled with the beans of freshly ground love
let the bee-pace be branch-sway opens the heart-space - sun-like inner light
food artfully real - tastes of wheatgrass, vineyards and mycelium’d soil
