Fall slapped me in the face today. Like, literally. On my morning walk this very leaf fell from a tree and coincided with my face on its way to earth.
I think it was trying to show off. It's a pretty fancy-looking leaf.
You can feel autumn's red-orange creeping in from the edges while you slowly relinquish your internal summer greens.
I love this time of year for its wistfulness. Content with already-sun-fading memories but remorseful for the shortening of days. What hasn't been done will remain undone, trips untaken and songs unsung.
Relieved from too much heat and bracing for the long bundle-up.
