Autumn

Nature opened her cosmetic bag of tricks and painted the face of the Earth.

A tart at heart, she brushed tangerine shadow below gold brows, flaunted apricot lashes and apple blushes,

let her wine-soaked spirit lick the leaves veined with cinnamon;   every curve of her cheek danced with 

flaming flamboyance.  Only the willow maiden-haired in green now tells why it weeps.

Wishing you a very beautiful and colorful Autumn!!!

  2. Kathleen,
    How are you? I was so surprised when I saw your comment today. "Nature opened her cosmetic bag of tricks and painted the face of the Earth" - oh, I love that. That is so true about Autumn. I hope you are enjoying the season as much as I am. Good to have you back, my friend.

    Love,
