fall sightings

[laleesh]

funky leavings...

the first array
of summer’s fray, lace scattered
on a faded day,

gold tatter

in the fengy shui
of fall.



the leavings of a light breeze...

parched
and polychromed
a stiff foam of confetti rivers the main

les arbes du pere richard*
quiver guilty

in the rain.

(*a messy albeit colorful in the fall weedy type of tree the local french call the trees of father richard, pronounced ree'shard)



datura...

angel
trumpet

played by the breeze.

wispers
tangle dangled reeds
of color,

tease aroma from the soma of a moment - sweet!
and dreamy.

mmmmm.. i can smell it, see it, play in it..

does it never frost down there, missy L?

[laleesh]

LOL! frost and long pants are rare phenomena here, epi. autumn is spring in reverse with an abounding rash of lovely flowers and foliage, pecans piled sky-high! LOL!!!

spring in reverse .. i like that
i wondered cos the angel trumpet datura grows here, too, mmmmm mm mm is that amazing?
but its a micro climate, really and one winter, down in the valley, over night, an unexpected frost killed a lovely one in our neighborhood.
