Killing Time

Cool and crisp air,
Gentle breeze between. 
Bright sun and blue December sky.
Leaves dancing in the sun’s light before their timely flight.
The birds about their business.
Cold in the shade.
Acorns crunch as a man walks by.
It won’t be long this moment in time.
Met expectations.
It feels so right, my chin in my palm,
Enjoying the peace, enjoying the calm.
No worries, no rush, no reason or rhyme.
How thoughtful it is, to sit killing time

You've caught a moment of quiet calm, of images natural and enduring. Killing time but keenly aware of so much bounty about. Discovering your portfolio is a gift this autumn day. Be well. Brian
