I think I like the colour autumn. I recently read that somewhere on a thread as September comes a calling where a random post asked what colour people liked and one person said ‘autumn’. I had to smile at that because it made so much sense to me. Yes I like autumn as a colour as it gives off such a bloom of brilliance. The breadth and depth of autumn’s hues is unbelievably majestic. So next to my favourites of blues, I am taking autumn as my new favourite colour…a burst of warmth and freshness.
Welcome October as you bring in your dramatic changes to the world around. This time of year is all about coziness. Getting out the sweater or hoodie, tucking in the chin from the wind off the sea and not sweating after a good brisk morning trek. Ah it is so wondrous a feeling. It is like a dried water fall that wraps around you, rejuvenating and lively, heightening all of your senses. It is almost too much to take in as the wonder and awe of autumn splendour permeates anywhere and everywhere.
What is it about the fall that feels glorious!? The land around here is taking on the farmers loving touch as it reaps in the harvest of their late spring efforts coming now to fruition. The fields will soon take on the red ribbed lines and the green of greens will slowly dull to a weathered-worn look until the snow flies. Oops. I cannot go there.
I am going to enjoy the blessing of this weather that we have been having. Although the rain has been minimal, the sun shine that glistens upon the waters and autumns heavenly hues brings a joy to one’s heart. Thank you October for continuing the glorious days from September’s wake of autumn’s grandeur. From your opening of the day to the closing at the day’s end. Peace.
Let us pray for those in need of our prayers this day. Amen.
