Autumnal Scotland

The deer leaps in the autumn glow Mindful of the forthcoming snow In the glen the heather’s in bloom A wonderful place here in nature’s room Along the coast the seabirds fly Catching thermals, riding high Nests built up along the ridges Among the rocks, grass and the midges The waves break many feet below Causing an iridescent green glow As plumes of spray escape the brine An act that’s repeated time after time

Thanks Jan, I have lucky to have been to Scotland many times, autumn being by far the best. I just love the people, the culture and of course the landscape.
