Winter Calls

Sun recedes earlier each day as fall gives way to winter.
Vibrant colors of my favorite trees recede in sympathy.
Death of light and color usher in the cold grays of darkness.

Autumn winks at winter wondrously, Linda, in your highly effective articulation. Exquisitely done my friend, Aloha!

Thank you, William! If you've ever experienced winter in the midwest, you know what I mean. If you've always been in Hawaii, then you are fortunate, my friend!

Too soon, too soon! Say it isn't so. Rooting for an autumnal comeback. (It'll be 82 degrees Fahrenheit in Chicago tomorrow, for what it's worth). Joy and Light, Gershon

The weather is similar here in the Quad Cities. I'm definitely not a fan of Iowa winters. I'm with you...autumnal comeback for the win!
