Autumn Station

I am here at Autumn Station, looking down the sun-tinted rails of a silvery track. I find it a burden to live in just the present, so! Give me the future now, clickety-clack, clickety-clack. I dream of the first snow blessing this wondrous earth. Whilst the crunch of dead leaves, beneath my feet, doth my agrieved autumnal soul, besmirch. Or, finding my mind, living in days, many decades ago. And I lose my joy in my present days and so..... I am here at Autumn Station, and as usual, feeling so inimicablly,lost. Maybe, I will feel happier when on my kitchen window pane, I see that very first, glorious frost? (Crunch...sigh.,crunch...sigh!) October 14, 2019

Hello Panagiota … as you stand on Autumn station preparing for the whites and greys, and witness staghorn branched trees, I stand on Spring station admiring soft new greens and scented colours of the rainbow; forget about hay fever - thank you once again Panagiota - Lindsay

Heidi, oh Heidi...it's my work, not Caren's. I think it's cute as I make errors constantly. Panagiota
