Daylight Saving

So short the days, so long to burn the fog that masks the fading muted reflections. Orange red and yellow meld to a soft amber that drifts and falls slowly mellow. November morning, crisp dawning crushed like the frost tipped blades - rushed like the years final days and the colors now gone. I watch and recall, once more forced to be patient while waiting for the sun.

A feel-good poem for me Craig, makes me feel kind of cozy, with more time for a fire in the fireplace, sipping some hot tea, safe and warm inside. The sun will come soon enough x

Love fall Charlotte, but not dark shorter days. That said, it's the seasons, like our unforgiving moods become intoxicating in a way that makes it a paradox -- headed to Florida in the AM for the winter--hope you have a great winter in the UK
